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 made these for Easter breakfast this morning, and I omitted the strawberries for half the recipe (added them in after half the batch was cooked so that there would be options for the family). Even the ones without strawberries were tasty! Thanks for all your great recipes. I’ve tried several and they’re all great!
Just made these delicious morning treats but sub flax meal for oats, used half raspberry/strawberries!! WoW! the raspberries created a fragrance and taste that I have never had in pancakes before! Great recipe – please try with raspberries too!
Continued thanks!
I will definitely have to try that! 🙂
Skinny-mini-Katie:
You rocked my taste bud’s with the blueberry pancakes with cheesecake sauce. My husband insists that it should be called vanilla ice cream sauce. I am going to try the strawberry one’s by myself. You know, just in case they are too good to share ; ) I had to go buy coconut oil just so I could make these pancakes. I spent, easily, 30 minutes searching threw the grocery store to find it! If these pancakes taste as good as I think they will, it will totally be worth it.
I do have a question/favor to ask. Is there any way you can make a “printer friendly” option to your recipe’s? I am a little “special” in the kitchen. If the recipe is not in front of me, I will some how mess it up. If I write it down, I will get all dyslexic with measurements. Believe me when I say, one CUP is not the same as one Tablespoon! Especially with flour, and cooking for ones in-laws. Suffice to say, glue-gravy disaster.
Thanks again!

These were absolutely amazing — and I’m not a vegan. (Or a vegetarian. I love my cheese. And meat.) My boys have been begging me to have “breakfast for dinner” so I tried these tonight with the cheesecake sauce, and they were a HUGE hit. My 7-year-old asked me if I could get up early tomorrow to make them again for breakfast, and my 4-year-old and 1-year-old both loved them too. I can’t wait to try the blueberry ones!! Thanks so much for providing delicious, healthy options!!
Aw that makes me so happy! I try to make sure and test all my recipes on my non-vegetarian roommate and friends to make sure non-vegans like everything before I post it! 😉
LOVE YOUR RECIPES!!! Can I use frozen strawberries?
I think so… fully thaw first!
I was having a hard time deciding if I wanted these or brownie batter pancakes… so I combined them! I added a tablespoon of dark cocoa powder to these. AMAZING!!!!
Wow, that sounds like the best idea ever!
What is the calorie, fat, carbs, sugar, protein, etc. on these! They look so good, but I am trying to lose weight!
Sorry, I posted this before I started giving nutritional info so I don’t know. But now I use a free site, Spark Recipe Calculator: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp
You can just plug the ingredients into that!
These were amazing! The first time I made the recipe, they didn’t even make it to the frying pan because the batter was so good. Once I actually cooked them, I melted a banana on top which was really yummy!
Katie (and everyone else) — this recipe works as waffles, too!!! 😀 I just tried it in my waffle maker, and I got three delicious golden waffles out of it. The second batch came out a little ugly since it wasn’t quite done and ripped apart when I opened the lid, but I’m pretty sure if I’d have just ignored the little green light and waited a bit longer, it would have been just as perfect as the first set. I really need to make some vanilla ice cream to go over these as a sundae, but I couldn’t resist eating them as soon as they came out, so I’ll have to try it again another day. (Note: I used the optional oil so I’m not sure if they’d come out the same if that’s omitted.)
These look so good!! I am on a sugar-free, starch-free diet but I could make these if I used almond flour instead of the other flours suggested… you think that would work? I have tried an almond flour pancake before and it was not so good, but I am willing to try again!
