Strawberry Pancakes With Mamma Callie's Syrup

• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• Small pinch of salt
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 cups well-shaken buttermilk
• 2 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for greasing
• Vegetable oil, for greasing
• 1 cup sliced strawberries

1. Make the syrup: Add 3/4 cup water, the brown sugar and salt to a medium saucepan over medium heat.
2. Bring the mixture to a simmer and stir until the sugar dissolves.
3. Let simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Let cool before serving.
5. Make the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl.
6. Add the buttermilk, eggs and cooled melted butter to a second bowl and whisk to combine.
7. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet mixture.
8. Stir with a rubber spatula until just combined.
9. Do not overmix or you'll end up with tough and chewy pancakes!
10. Heat a large electric griddle or nonstick frying pan over medium heat.
11. Add a few drops of vegetable oil and a pat of butter.
12. Once the butter melts, wipe the skillet with a paper towel.
13. Ladle about 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
14. Place a small handful of sliced strawberries on top of the pancakes.
15. Cook until the bubbles begin to burst on the surface, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until the second side is a nice golden brown, about 2 more minutes.
16. Repeat with the remaining batter; put the finished pancakes on a sheet tray and keep warm in the oven as you finish.
17. Arrange the pancakes on individual plates and serve with the syrup.
