Description
Fluffy homemade pancakes filled with chunks of Oreo cookies for a fun, chocolatey twist on breakfast. Soft and tender with pockets of cookie throughout, these indulgent pancakes are perfect for weekend brunch or special mornings.
Ingredients
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon vinegar
125 grams all-purpose flour (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
½ tablespoon pure vanilla extract
10 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 tablespoons coconut or vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
- Combine the milk and vinegar in a small bowl and let sit for 10 minutes to create homemade buttermilk.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the milk mixture and whisk until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped Oreo cookies, then add the melted butter and mix lightly until incorporated.
- Heat a large pan over medium-low heat and add about ½ tablespoon of oil.
- Scoop about ⅓ cup of batter onto the pan and spread slightly to form a 5-inch pancake.
- Cook for 45–60 seconds until bubbles form and edges set, then flip and cook until golden brown.
- Lower heat slightly as needed and add more oil between batches.
- Serve warm with desired toppings.
Notes
Avoid overmixing to keep pancakes light and fluffy.
Whole milk provides the richest texture, but low-fat milk can be used.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
Reheat in a skillet for best texture.
Top with whipped cream, syrup, chocolate drizzle, or crushed Oreos.
