Raspberry Pancakes FAQs

  1. Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh? You may, but please note that they may take slightly longer to cook, and if the berries defrost before cooking the batter, or adding to the batter, the pancakes may have streaks of pink/red in them.
  2. Can I use a different berry in place of the raspberries? Of course! Just cut up the other fresh berries if need be, such as large blackberries or strawberries.
