Ingredients
UnitsScale
Pancakes:
1cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cheesecake Filling:
4oz cream cheese (softened)
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Toppings:
1cup fresh strawberries (sliced)
1/4cup strawberry syrup or jam (warmed)
whipped cream for topping (optional)
Instructions
Pancakes: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir just until combined.
Cheesecake Filling: In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon juice until smooth.
Cooking: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden.
Assembly: Stack the pancakes, spreading or piping a layer of cheesecake filling between them. Top with sliced strawberries, warm strawberry syrup, and whipped cream if desired.
Notes
To save time, prepare the cheesecake filling in advance and refrigerate.
You can also swirl the filling directly into the pancake batter for a marbled effect.
