Imagine fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth pancakes loaded with the beloved crunch of Oreos, all smothered in a tangy yet creamy drizzle. These pancakes elevate the classic breakfast favorite with a fun twist, making them irresistible to both kids and adults alike. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply craving a decadent morning indulgence, these Oreo pancakes will surely be the star of your table.
Ingredients: For the pancakes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8-10 Oreo cookies, crushed
For the cream cheese drizzle:
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-3 tablespoons milk (or more to adjust consistency)
Directions:
Prepare the pancake batter: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this could make the pancakes tough.
Add the Oreo cookies: Gently fold in the crushed Oreos into the pancake batter. The cookies will give the pancakes a fun, crunchy texture and a rich flavor.
Cook the pancakes: Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the hot surface, spreading it out slightly into a circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Prepare the cream cheese drizzle: In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust the milk to achieve your desired consistency—thicker for a more spreadable drizzle, or thinner for a more pourable one.
Serve: Stack the pancakes high on a plate, drizzle with the cream cheese sauce, and garnish with extra crushed Oreos if desired.
