Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes – Sweet homemade & fluffy pancakes, bursting with fresh strawberries in every bite!
Your guests’ tastebuds will think they’ve died and gone to a tropical paradise.
You don’t have to tell anyone that such a beautiful and delicious breakfast is actually healthy! What they don’t know won’t hurt them.
Just stir all ingredients together in a bowl, ladle onto a greased skillet, and flip as soon as they start to bubble.
You can add some shredded coconut or mini chocolate chips if you wish, and I recommend topping the pancakes with homemade whipped cream!
I linked my favorite vegan-friendly whipped cream recipe below in the recipe, but feel free to use coconut whipped cream or even your favorite store-bought whipped cream if you prefer.
Their fatness rivals my Blueberry Pie Pancakes.
And I didn’t try to shape the one above into a heart; it just happened to fall that way!

I just made these and they are soooooooo delicious!! These and your blueberry pie pancakes are awesome!! Definitely the best pancakes I’ve ever had!! Now, I’ve noticed that there’s a section missing from your recipes…how about waffles???? Girl, you’ve gotta make some of pancakes’ bff’s! I can only imagine how delish chocolate covered waffles would be!! Thanks for all of your wonderful recipes!!!
You are 100% right. I NEED to make waffles!!! Need to!
Let me just say, that this was just amazing!
I just discovered your blog over the weekend and have been paralyzed with indecision as to which recipes to try first, they all look so delish! So I started with a smoothie and yesterday tried these pancakes (breakfast is my favorite meal) and loved them! I used the cheesecake sauce sweetened with a little agave and some maple syrup (and doubled the recipe after tasting) and my daughter declared these “5 out of 5”. I even made it gluten free and no one missed the wheat. I used the all purpose flour mix from gluten free goddess: 2 parts sorghum: 2 parts potato starch: 1 part almond flour: little xanthum gum.
Thanks for sharing your delicious ideas!
Aww Ann, that makes me SO happy!! And thanks for leaving the gluten-free suggestion. I try to provide gf options for my recipes as often as possible, but I admit I need a LOT more practice when it comes to knowing about gf baking!
Hey! Question. If you ommit the oats from this recipe will it still work??
Sorry, no clue. You’ll have to experiment!
Hey Katie! I’m currently living in Finland on an exchange year, and i’m always looking for recipes that will help keep off the usual exchange-student pounds….your website is awesome for those! these pancakes were incredible and my host family was amazed. thank you so much 🙂
Can you put normal quaker oats in this recipe instead of rolled? I don’t have rolled oats and I’m dying to make these!!
Can you make these with just quaker oats? I don’t have any rolled oats and im dying to make these!!
Quaker oats ARE rolled oats ;).
So yes, definitely you can use those!
My tummy is a very, very happy tummy, Katie! I just polished off my plate of these beauties (topped with a few dark chocolate chips, of course)! I left out the oil and didn’t miss a thing. They were just perfect as is, and so filling. Absolutely perfect for my pancake Sunday! I even added a little cinnamon (I just can’t stop adding it to things lately).
I’m sure you’ve thought of/tried this, but I make these as chocolate-covered-strawberry pancakes by subbing cocoa for the rolled oats. Light, fluffy, sweet, and SO happifying!
do you need oats?
I’ve never made them without oats, so I don’t know.
