Ingredients

PANCAKES

  • 1 ¼ all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • Butter or nonstick cooking spray for pan

STRAWBERRY SAUCE

  • 2 cup strawberries diced (fresh or frozen and thawed)
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons water

CREAM CHEESE FILLING

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • To make the cream cheese filling, mix all ingredients together in a medium sized bowl with an electric mixer on medium high speed until smooth and creamy and set aside.
  • To prepare the strawberry sauce, mix cornstarch and water until combined in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Add strawberries, lemon juice and sugar into a medium sized saucepan over medium heat and bring just to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  • Reduce heat to simmer and gently mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher while they cook.
  • Add the cornstarch slurry and let simmer for another 2-3 minutes until sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • For the pancakes, whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl to combine.
  • Next add the egg, milk, vanilla, and melted butter into the flour mixture, whisk until just combined. Do not overmix the batter.
  • Over medium heat, spray a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Pour ¼ cup of pancake batter per pancake, working in batches. Cook each pancake for about 4-5 minutes total, flipping the pancakes halfway through (you’ll see tiny bubbles in the batter start to form when it is ready to flip).
  • Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate until you’ve worked through all of the batter.
  • When ready to serve, spread the cream cheese filling on top of the pancakes and drizzle with the strawberry glaze, topping with whip cream. Serve immediately, enjoy!
