Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Flour
  • 1/4 cup Packed Brown Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups Nonfat Milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/3 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • PHILADELPHIA Strawberry or Blueberry Cream Cheese Spread

Equipment

  • Frying Pan
  • Skillet
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Start by whisking together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Make sure to mix it well so that the baking powder is evenly distributed.
  2. In another bowl, combine the vegetable oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk these wet ingredients until they’re well blended and slightly frothy.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently. Be careful not to overmix; you want a few lumps to ensure fluffy pancakes.
  4. Preheat your electric griddle to 350°F or heat a skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray or grease with some butter to prevent sticking.
  5. Ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle, using about a quarter cup for each pancake. Immediately sprinkle about half a teaspoon of graham cracker crumbs on top of each pancake.
  6. Cook until the bottom turns a lovely golden brown and you see bubbles forming on the surface. This should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
  7. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until they’re fully cooked through. Some of the graham cracker crumbs might spill when you flip, so don’t worry—this is normal!
  8. Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the griddle and keep them warm while you finish the rest of the batter.
  9. Serve your fluffy Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes with a generous dollop of PHILADELPHIA Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread on top. You can also drizzle them with maple syrup for that sweet finish.

Notes

If you're looking to shake things up with your Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes, here are some fun ideas to try:
  • Fruit Variations: Swap out the strawberries for other fruits like blueberries or raspberries for a different fruity twist.
  • Flavored Spreads: Experiment with different flavors of cream cheese spread to customize your pancakes even more!
  • Nutty Addition: Toss in some crushed nuts or seeds into the batter for added crunch and flavor.
  • Chocolate Chips: For a sweeter touch, throw in some chocolate chips to the batter for a delightful surprise.
  • Vegan Option: Substitute the eggs with a flaxseed mixture or applesauce and use plant-based milk for a vegan version.
