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!

Umm…what to say? DELICIOUS!!!! I tripled the recipe and added a half of a banana. Absolutely amazing. Thanks Katie!
SOOOOOOO GOOD! My sister loved them too…I may be eating these every day since I have a huge container of strawberries to work my way through 🙂
Thank you Katie! P.S. You need to get on instagram…your fans (myself included) have been posting lots of pics of our CCK recipe attempts…it’s great 🙂
I do! lol but there are just too many social media outlets cropping up… it’s taking over my life :-?. We need more time in the day ;).
Dear Katie.
Thank you for this recipe. But I have a problem. My pancakes doesn’t seem like the ones in the picture, and I had to put eggs in the recipe, because they’d stuck to the pan. I would really love those fluffy pancakes, but I must be very bad in making these. I use spelt flour, rolled oats and coconut oil in the recipe. I have tried psyllium seeds and even “No Egg”, but still they’re stuck. Normally everything turns well, but this one… *crying for help*.
Everyone else seems to get them perfect…
Darn!

I made true strawberry shortcake pancakes this morning but used skim milk. They were terrific! I topped them with more strawberries and real maple syrup. Thanks for posting so many inspirational ideas! I have two chocolate loving girls who can’t wait to try your brownie batter pancakes for breakfast in the morning!
I have a huge THANKS for you. The best part of cooking with my mom as a kid was licking the batter bowl clean. My girls never had that opportunity until now. We started making your vegan recipes and I have the joy of handing them spoons to clean the bowl! The batter is terrific and so are the results! Thanks for helping to make my cooking experience with my girls complete!
I made this today with all-purpose flour, soy milk, one packet strevia and old fashioned oats. The total calorie count came to 250.
Thank you so much for sharing these! I made these this morning and doubled the recipe for me and my husband. He said if I hadn’t told him these were vegan he never would have know. They are fabulous!
I was very excited after sampling this batter (most pancake batter is bland/dull)!
I added pecans, but didnt have/use vanilla extract and tried it at a women’s get-together…they LOVED it! Also: Used some coconut oil in the fry pan and sprinkled chocolate chips atop and used different cream cheese whipped cream…just WOW!
I never write comments, but considering how good these were I just had to.
This is the second recipe I’ve tried from your site and I’m blown away. (The first was the Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Baked Oatmeal, but, to be honest, it was bit too chocolatey for me. However I did not want to leave that as my first comment as your blog is title “chocolate-covered Katie”)
I’m not vegan, vegetarian nor need to lose weight, just a ballerina with a serious sweet tooth who can’t really eat normal sweets becuase it causes weight gain. These recipes are prefect for that. They’re healthy and yet have enough sweetness to satisfy me.
I made these today and totally forgot the sugar, didn’t even think use the oil and added no toppings, but they didn’t lack any type of sweetness at all [I did throw a small handful of chocolate chips inspired by your opening comments. If figured if the only think stopping them from being the best was the lack of chocolate, I could fix that]. They tasted like strawberry crepes! (And I love love love crepes). Plus it completely filled me up. I had to force the last two bites down.
I will be calling these “Strawberry Crepe Pancakes” from now on, since I’ve never had shortcake. I hope you don’t mind. I can’t wait to try more pancakes (And this is from someone who thought they hated pancakes a day ago)
(p.s. my last one ended up looking like a heart too (https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-pt_SJAbfEWc/UDEV8wfgmYI/AAAAAAAAGFs/tDIkVe-ciOc/s512/strawberry%2520heart.jpg. I took it on my iphone and didn’t touch it up, so it kind of, blah, lol)
And congrats on your latest publication)
So cute! I love it 🙂
Strawberry crepe pancakes sound good to me!
Just made these for myself and my husband. They are AMAZING!!!! My husband loves regular pancakes and usually requests them while I make myself a healthier version. I just made these without asking him first and he was blown away! Thanks!
