Strawberry Pancakes topped with a luscious cream cheese glaze and fresh cut strawberries
You know that moment when you take a bite of something and that “mmmmm” sound escapes? Exactly. That’s what happened when I bit into this stack of pancakes right here. I love pancakes. Such a fun and easy meal. And not just for breakfast. I’m a big fan of breakfast for dinner, or in the case of these I would consider this a lovely breakfast for dessert meal.
The pancakes themselves alone were tasty. Made with chopped up strawberries and brown sugar in the pancake batter. Then I figured why not go all out and add a lovely glaze to these as well. Syrup on fruit just doesn’t work for me. So a glaze of course was the only thing to do.
The cream cheese glaze on these is what makes this aMAZing! If I could get away with it, I would just eat the glaze, by the spoonful, standing in the kitchen in my pajamas. But sadly, my jeans would never forgive me for that transgression. So I restrained myself, and only devoured the glaze with the pancakes. Because of course that’s better right?
I have a feeling that these strawberry and cream pancakes are going to become a regular meal in this household. So quick and easy to make, and tastes like heaven.

Wonderful recipe. So easy to make and always turns out great. I also use it to make waffles and everyone loves them! The only thing I have changed is I usually only use half the butter to help reduce the fat in them and they still turn out great. Thanks for this wonderful recipe! We no longer buy mixes. With 5 kids, I usually have to triple (or even quadruple) the recipe and it works every time! We usually make more than we can eat so we freeze the extra so that we have them for school mornings. Simply heat up in the toaster or microwave. Can’t beat this quick breakfast! Whole Wheat flour also works great!!!
Thats awesome! I’m so happy you like the recipe 🙂 And I have 4 kids myself, so I know all about having to triple up on recipes.
Just had these for Easter Brunch they were a big big hit.
Teri I’m so glad everyone liked them!! Wish I had some for Easter brunch 🙂
Hi Serene! Your strawberries and cream pancakes look fantastic!! Perfect for strawberry season – I’ve pinned and just shared on my facebook page. Have a wonderful day! ~Erin
Omigosh, I think I could wake up just about any morning (even if I had an exam!) with no problem if knew some of these were waiting for me! You have essentially made it ok for me to put frosting on my breakfast! You had me at strawberry pancakes, but the cream cheese glaze is really what’s making me salivate.
Rebecca, I wish I could wake up to these every morning too!! And dessert for breakfast is probably the best thing EVER and the only way to start the day! Hope you had a great weekend 🙂
