Rise and shine for an indulgent breakfast of Oreo Pancakes or better yet, make a batch for a special dessert. This easy pancakes recipe would also be great for your next Saturday brunch or for the perfect late night treat for a sleepover.
We like to shake things up around here. You know, go against the grain, zig when they zag, buy when others sell, head to the left hand line instead of the automatic right, and all that kind of backwards thinking stuff. It works for us. Usually.
In the scheme of all things contrary, sometimes breakfast is for dinner, and sometimes breakfast is for dessert, or as I like to call it “bressert.” These Oreo Pancakes fall perfectly under the “bressert” category, for sure. They are decadent stack of pancakes that could certainly be served for dessert, unless you wake up with a really huge sweet tooth. And if that is the case, then go for it!
This pancake recipe is made by crushing up Oreos and then mixing the crushed cookies into a batter that makes the perfect indulgent stack of goodness. Top with some fresh whipped cream and more crushed Oreos, or even better, a big scoop of vanilla ice cream, then drizzled with your favorite syrup. And if you are in a creative, play with your food kind of mood, alternate layers of Oreo Pancakes with whipped cream to create one crazy giant over the top Oreo bressert, just make to sure to call me and I’ll grab a fork and head your way.
This easy pancakes recipe can be prepped in no time or make ahead and keep refrigerated overnight until ready to use.
Here are a few of my other favorite pancake recipes that will do double duty as a fantastic dessert or bressert:
- Sweet Potato Pancakes: Toasted pecans or Candied Bacon plus syrup make these pancakes a crazy good dessert, if you ask me.
- Coconut Pancakes: Drizzle these with chocolate syrup for a super duper bressert.
- Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes: A gluten-free and vegan pancake option that doesn’t taste gluten-free or vegan.
Whether you serve these Oreo Pancakes for breakfast, or bressert I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!

Man I wish I was your neighbor, you come up with the greatest recipes. Love these pancakes!
My daughter has been begging for oreo pancakes all week. I finally succumbed and found this recipe. I didn’t have enough oreos, but made it anyway. These are the most delicious pancakes in the world! Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness these look amazing! Perfect for bressert or my husbands late night sweet tooth!
Is it whole milk or buttermilk? The ingredients list whole milk, but the instructions list buttermilk.
Whoops! So sorry. It’s whole milk. Recipe is fixed now. Thank you for letting me know.
i think i may have just died and gone to heaven.. these look DIVINE! definitely craving a stack now – your photography makes them look so appetizing..
I adore dessert for breakfast!
Are you supposed to take the cream out before crushing them?
Nope. Crush it all together, Veronica.
Made these for my boyfriend on Valentine’s day. He loved them!!! Although, I might add, that I only poured about half of the liquid ingredients into the dry ones. So, don’t get too carried away and over mix! Other than that, they were a hit, and the batter made a lot. Can’t wait to make them again!
So happy to hear that y’all enjoyed them!
These look great, going to give them a try very soon-thanks!
Can this recipe be halved?
