butter

Coconut oil adds a unique flavor and is plant-based.

flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

Whole wheat flour increases fiber content.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey provides natural sweetness with additional flavor.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is lower in calories and dairy-free.

Introduce the recipe and ingredients: all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, and water.

Use 1 cup of unbleached all-purpose flour.

Add 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour.

Mix the dry ingredients well to incorporate the baking powder.

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture.

Slowly add about 1/4 cup of water into the well, mixing as you go.

Adjust the water as needed, adding more if necessary, but be careful not to add too much.

Add strawberries and blueberries to the mixture for sweetness and flavor.

Mix until the batter is light and fluffy, resembling a 'light little fluffy cloud.'

Prepare a nonstick square pan by greasing it to prevent sticking.

Spread the batter evenly in the pan without needing it to be perfect.

Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F until fluffy and cooked through.

For the pan-fried version, prepare another batch with the same ingredients but adjust the water to make it less sticky.

Preheat a pan for frying and scoop the dough into the pan, similar to making dumplings.

Cook until golden brown on both sides.
