Description

Delightful Strawberry Cream Stuffed Pancake Donut Stacks combine fluffy homemade pancakes layered with a luscious strawberry cream filling to create an indulgent breakfast treat or dessert. This recipe features homemade pancakes cooked on a stovetop, layered generously with sweet whipped cream, cream cheese, and fresh strawberries, assembled into charming stacks that look like donut-shaped delights.

Ingredients

Scale

Pancakes

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Strawberry Cream Filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup strawberries, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined to create the dry pancake base.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly to combine.
  3. Combine Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until the batter is smooth and free of lumps but be careful not to overmix to keep pancakes fluffy.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Pour batter onto the hot surface to form pancake shapes. Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  5. Whip Cream: Using a mixer, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract on high speed until stiff peaks form and the mixture is fluffy and smooth.
  6. Prepare Strawberry Cream Filling: Gently fold the softened cream cheese and chopped strawberries into the whipped cream, mixing just enough to blend but maintain a light texture.
  7. Assemble Stacks: Layer the pancake donut-shaped circles by spreading a generous amount of strawberry cream between each pancake, stacking them to desired height.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Drizzle with a glaze if desired (such as a simple powdered sugar glaze) and top with extra fresh strawberries before serving immediately for best taste.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to easily fold into the whipped cream without lumps.
  • For uniform donut-shaped pancakes, use a ring mold if desired.
  • Serve immediately after assembling to keep pancakes soft and cream fresh.
  • Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 day but pancakes may lose some softness.
