Strawberry Oatmeal Pancakes are an easy to make, yummy breakfast! Chopped fresh strawberries, brown sugar and cinnamon provide GREAT flavor!
Years ago I found a recipe for oatmeal pancakes in an old cookbook I had. Over the years I never tried that particular recipe, and truthfully almost forgot about it.
Years later I came upon the original recipe and decided to play around with the ingredients a bit, and add fresh strawberries to the batter, for a different taste!
This recipe is the result, and I think these strawberry oatmeal pancakes taste great. They are simple to make, and have a wonderful flavor I believe you’ll enjoy.
The recipe (as written) will yield approximately 10 strawberry oatmeal pancakes. Here’s how to make them.

Soak The Oats
Measure old fashioned oats into a medium sized bowl. Pour milk over the oats, then give them a quick stir. Let the oats soak in the milk for 10 minutes.
Make The Pancake Batter
After the oats have finished soaking, it’s time to make the pancake batter. In a small bowl, sift together flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder.
Pour these sifted dry ingredients into the bowl with the soaked oats and milk, and stir only until the ingredients are combined.
Stir a lightly beaten egg and oil into the batter until they’ve been incorporated (don’t overmix). If you feel the batter is too thin, stir in a Tablespoon or two more of the flour.
Add chopped strawberries to the batter, and gently fold them in, until they’re combined. Now you’re ready to make strawberry oatmeal pancakes!
Let’s Make Some Pancakes!
Prepare a griddle or large skillet by brushing it with cooking oil and heating it. Once the griddle or skillet is hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
Let the pancakes cook on medium heat, until they’re lightly browned on the bottom. Bubbles will also form around the edges of the pancakes and the top will be slightly set.
Carefully flip the pancakes over with a spatula, and cook until the other side has browned and the pancakes are cooked all the way through.
Repeat this process with the remaining batter. You should have enough of the batter to make about 10 pancakes.
Serve The Strawberry Oatmeal Pancakes
Transfer the strawberry oatmeal pancakes to a serving platter or to individual plates. Garnish each plate with a couple ripe strawberries for a pop of color, if desired.
Top the pancakes with a bit of softened butter, and drizzle the pancakes with syrup. Serve immediately while still hot, and ENJOY!
You can see the little pieces of strawberries inside the pancakes. YUM!
This is such a simple recipe for delicious pancakes! I hope you have the opportunity to make them, and trust you and those you love will enjoy this dish.
