Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 egg
- 15 Oreos (10 for batter, 5 for topping)
Leavening Agents:
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients and Toppings:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- Extra Oreos for garnish
Instructions
- Sift together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until thoroughly blended and smooth.
- Gradually pour wet ingredients into dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to maintain pancake tenderness.
- Crush Oreo cookies into small chunks and delicately fold into batter, distributing evenly throughout the mixture.
- Heat griddle or non-stick skillet to medium temperature (around 350°F), lightly greasing surface with butter or cooking spray.
- Pour batter in circular motions, creating uniform pancakes; cook until bubbles form on surface, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
- Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form, creating a light and airy texture.
- Gently incorporate additional crushed Oreo pieces into whipped cream, creating speckled cream mixture.
- Layer pancakes vertically, alternating between pancake layers and Oreo-infused whipped cream.
- Garnish top of stack with whole and crumbled Oreo cookies for decorative presentation.
Notes
