How to Serve Oreo Pancakes
Serve these pancakes warm for the best flavor. They are great on their own but can also be enjoyed with a side of fruit or a scoop of ice cream. Don’t forget to add extra crushed Oreos on top for that added crunch!
How to Store Oreo Pancakes
If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster or microwave when you are ready to enjoy them again!
Tips to Make Oreo Pancakes
- For extra fluffy pancakes, use buttermilk instead of regular milk.

- For a fun twist, try adding some mini marshmallows or nuts to the batter.
Variation
You can change up this recipe by using different types of cookies, like chocolate chip or peanut butter, instead of Oreos. You can also make a chocolate sauce instead of cream cheese drizzle for a richer taste.
