Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes
Ingredients
For the pancakes:
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar*, granulated will work
- 3/4 cup almond milk or water, or other milk
For the topping:
- 10 oz. whipped topping**
- 1 pint of strawberries, diced***
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. and spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Combine pancake mix and milk or water.
- Mixture may be a bit lumpy. Allow pancake batter to sit and thicken for about 5 minutes before cooking. If mixture seems too thin to spoon onto baking sheet, add another tablespoon of pancake mix. (Mixture should not spread when spooned onto baking sheet. It should be more like a cookie batter consistency.)
- Spoon about ¼ cup of pancake batter onto baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F. for about 12 minutes.
- Top pancakes with the whipped topping and strawberries and enjoy!
Notes
**I like skinny truwhip- it's 100% natural, nonGMO, no high fructose corn syrup, no hydrogenated oils and gluten-free. I find it at my local Kroger grocery store in the natural foods freezer section.
***Any favorite fruit would work fabulously... peaches, cinnamon apples, blueberries, raspberries and the list goes on!

I have some questions, for the Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes, i normally make pancakes with butter, egg and milk, but in thie recipe it only asks for milk and sugar, so no butter and no eggs??
Thank you!
The pancake mix (Kodiak Cakes) that I use does not call for eggs or butter. Give it a try, I bet it will work just fine for you! 🙂
Nope. I used a pancake mix and it doesn’t call for butter or eggs.
