Gluten-free Strawberry Shortcake in the Skillet

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • 1 cup of peanut butter
  • ½ cup of maple syrup
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon of vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon of almond extract
  • Strawberries (sliced)

Directions:

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a cast iron skillet over the campfire and then place quartered fresh strawberries at the bottom of the skillet.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of peanut butter, a half-cup of maple syrup, 2 eggs, 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 tablespoon of vanilla and a half-teaspoon of almond extract. Mix everything together and then pour the mixture on top of the strawberries.

Serve while it’s hot!
