Is there anything in this world that tastes better than pancakes? Even chocolate can't compete with the variety of tastes you get when you make them! The good thing is that you can serve them in thousands of ways, even for breakfast. After all, they are prepared to make your day better, and we hope to freshen your days with these top ten intriguing recipes you'll immediately want to try at home!
10. Carrot Cake Pancakes
"Pancakes" and "healthy" in the same sentence? They exist!
We'll kick off the list with the healthiest type of sweet pancakes you could ever find on the Internet. Carrots are healthy, and they go so well with pancakes – you would never guess until you try! They taste better than they look, but their look is similar to the cake of the same name.
These pancakes are so versatile they don't even have to be sweet. You can skip the cream cheese and soak them in something you'd rather eat for breakfast that doesn't involve sweets. However, cream cheese will make them taste like a carrot cake, and you'll make the pancake version of this cake much easier!
9. Hot Cocoa Pancakes
It doesn't get sweeter on this list than at this moment
Compared to the previously mentioned carrot pancakes, these are a sugar bomb. We love the duality that pancakes offer, although they can be made in thousands of ways! Any cocoa lover would drown themselves in the soaking chocolate, dripping over the stack of pancakes made of chocolate!
To make it even more fancy and refreshing, add some cute little marshmallows at the top. Chocolate chips are a good option, too! These are made for the brave ones since not everyone can eat them whole! Are they too sweet for you, or you're already on your way to try them?
8. Red Velvet Pancakes with Cream Cheese Glaze
No other pancakes look as romantic as red velvet ones
No, by Red Velvet, we don't mean the sugar-sweet K-pop girl band with insane concepts involving cakes and pancakes. However, these pancakes are as sweet as them! They are also tender and fluffy, and when you add the red food coloring to them, you'll wish that every day is Christmas!
The recipe with cream cheese glaze makes these pancakes even more refreshing, and a strawberry or raspberry on top with mint leaves would be a dream, too! Moreover, they are the best choice for celebrations like Valentine's Day or Christmas, and they can replace any birthday cake.
7. Banana Pudding Pancakes
Banana pudding is a beloved dessert with fruit and many layers – it's similar to pancakes
Bananas aren't a too innovative choice because we've already figured out that they work so well with pancakes. However, it's the safest pick in this world because there's nothing so soft and refreshing at the same time!
What makes this recipe creative, though, is the combination of bananas and/or vanilla pudding! The feeling is so refreshing that we can compare it to ice cream. It's rather a dessert than a breakfast, but you can choose for yourself, of course. With bananas and pudding, you can't go wrong!
6. Tiramisu Pancakes
Coffee's for mornings and pancakes like this make coffee your perfect breakfast
If you're a coffee enthusiast, you probably adore Tiramisu, a legendary Italian dessert that cheers you up like nothing else! Espresso is the best option, but if you prefer your strong-brewed coffee, the taste will be even more intense!
Furthermore, making pancakes of this taste is not a complicated process. You prepare it in a quite similar way to making Tiramisu! It's just way better because you can add maple syrup and vanilla! To make it look more food-bloggers style, decorate the top pancake with whipped cream, a bit of coffee, and chocolate.
5. Strawberry Cookie Crunch Pancakes
Stove Top Kisses made these pancakes a massive trend in 2020
The strawberry crunch cake is already an immense trend on Pinterest, and in the heat of the coronavirus pandemic at the very start of 2020, people started making pancakes in that style, too! It looks like the best idea ever since crunchy cookies complement the strawberries perfectly!
Furthermore, if you never tried strawberries with Nutella or any other iron-rich cocoa spread, your whole life was a lie! There is no sweeter combination in this world. In the comments section of this recipe, people jokingly said it could make more people stay at home than the government! Maybe they weren't joking?
4. Funfetti Buttermilk Pancakes
Never judge a book by its cover, but you can say that these both look and taste amazing
There is "fun" in the confetti you put into pancakes – pancakes always promise fun and the best feeling in the world, but these also ensure a lot of colors! Pancakes as multicolored as these are the best choice if you're making a surprise sweet for your loved one. Moreover, kids would freak out over them!
To be honest, everyone would freak out over anything that looks as funny as this and even tastes fluffy and is filled with vanilla. The recipe is quite similar to the buttermilk pancakes. The almond and vanilla extract makes these so delicious and smooth you'll want to bake more!
3. Chocolate Chip Party Pancakes
Delish's recipe for these pancakes made them look as perfect as the chocolate chip cookies!
You all know what chocolate chip cookies are. And we guess you enjoy them very often! Well, if they are your type, you'll love the pancake version, which is filled with crunchy chocolate chips. The best thing about them is that they're softer but still manage to save the particular crunchy feeling!
The "party" version of the pancakes is suitable if you want to serve them for more guests. Moreover, they have an "unusual" shape which makes them the "party" type, since they look like a regular cake! You'll eat these in a few minutes, especially if your friends are coming over!
2. Oreogasm Pancakes
Oreo makes everything better – and there's a lot of Oreo here
Being probably the best Delish recipe for pancakes ever, Oreogasm sounds and looks like sugar paradise. These pancakes are here to make you fall in love at first sight, and if you've ever tried pancakes with Oreo, you know how great this has to taste. You always come back to Oreo!
In case you're wondering why this even looks this good, you can get crushed parts of Oreo soaked in whipped cream and chocolate sauce! This can easily replace a cake for anyone's birthday, but for sugar enthusiasts, it can be a breakfast, too. It can be anything you want!
1. Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes
Fruits are one of the best options you have when it comes to pancakes!
Blueberry is one of the most delicious berries, but they're not too sweet, so these pancakes make a perfect breakfast. And what's better for breakfast than pancakes? That's what we meant by highlighting the blueberry ones! Buttermilk makes them fluffy, and healthy blueberry gives them a little dose of sourness you need.
Even though it's a stack of food, blueberry pancakes are light and easy, and they won't be too much for your lazy morning. Decorate the plate with some blueberries around the stack of pancakes, and your Sunday morning breakfast will look as if it indeed came directly from Pinterest. And it's even extremely delicious!
