An easy recipe for the BEST fluffy strawberry white chocolate chip pancakes! Made with simple ingredients: oat flour, almond meal, whole wheat flour and coconut.
Strawberries. White chocolate chips. Pancakes. ‘Nuff said.
But not… because I’m really a rambly type of gal.
Okay, I’ll admit, I’m the first to beeline for the darkest of dark chocolate desserts in that beloved, bright sweets case (side admission: I have a strange addiction to alliteration, alright?). But years of being just downright greedy and having so many loved ones who luuuuurve strawberries has brought me to this point:
Mile-high stacks of strawberry white chocolate chip pancakes.
It’s a high point, I’ll admit. Like, one mile high. Ahem.
The thing is, I have a sister (and a mom for that matter) that LOVE strawberries and white chocolate. If you give them these two things, you can get them to do anything. Please don’t tell them I told you this when you get them to do said thing.
The sister in question, Jenny, is actually referred to as “Jammy.” As in, strawberry jam. Yep. Didn’t I tell you? She’s an official Strawberry Luvah 4 Lyfe. Well, anyway, like four years ago, she asked me to make strawberry pancakes. Now don’t wince just yet, it didn’t take me this freaking long to make them. (Is that what you think of me???)
Since that time, long, long ago, I’ve made countless pancakes, strawberry everything and then got sassy and made strawberry white chocolate everything. Just- don’t get me started on the Birthday Strawberry Jam White Chocolate Chip Cookies.
They are indulgent.
But now. Now is the time for these babies. They are the best, for so many reasons:
- They’re fluffy yet satisfying
- A perfect balance of sweet and just a bit tangy
- Lightly crispy on the outside, but so soft on the inside
- Full of ingredients that won’t give you a sweet hangover in the morning:
- Oat flour + white whole wheat flour
- Almond meal
- Unsweetened coconut
- And, spoiler alert: super easy to make
These pancakes are so easy to make, delicious and sweets-craving-satisfying that you’ll never go back to any other pancake recipe. Jammy hasn’t. 🙂 Unless you’re totally in the mood for a paleo treat! In which case, you’ve got to try Noshtastic’s Paleo Pancakes! Just remember to swap the eggs for flax eggs and honey for maple syrup to make them vegan. Nom nom nom.
So go on, give these a whirl. Your family, friends and fellow Strawberry Luvahs 4 Lyfe will thank you.
- ¼ cup white whole wheat flour
- ¼ cup almond meal
- ½ cup oat flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cane sugar
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 modified flax egg (1⅓ tablespoons ground flax + 3 tablespoons water)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon almond or vanilla extract
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
- ¾ cup diced strawberries
- First, make your flax egg in a small bowl. Cover bowl and allow to set in the fridge for a few minutes.
- Whisk all of the dry ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Add in wet ingredients. Whisk a few times, quickly incorporating the ingredients. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in chocolate chips. With just a few strokes, fold in strawberries.
- Preheat the oven to 225F degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. Coat with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- Set a skillet to medium-low heat. Coat with nonstick spray. Scoop ¼ cup batter into skillet, making sure to space out pancakes. When several bubbles of air rise up and pop in the pancake, it’s time to flip. Test one pancake for doneness by flipping- this will give you a good idea of how long each pancake takes. If the pancake falls apart, it’s too soon. If the pancake flips easily and is golden brown with a crispy surface, it’s perfect!
- In between each round of making pancakes, make sure to carefully wipe off the skillet with a damp cloth, removing all crumbs. Then, coat with nonstick spray.
- Put pancakes on baking sheet and place into the oven, to keep warm until ready.
- Enjoy!

Hahaha! OMG, so it’s not just me?! I am strangely addicted to alliteration too! Like, I can’t HELP myself! I also can’t help myself around pancakes. And white chocolate. And strawberries. 😉 Clearly I feel like you made these stacks of scrumptiousness just for ME! So much to love here! Cheers, my dear!

I’m All About Alliteration. LOL. It’s a sickness, I know. But isn’t life just better with it? 😉 Um, Cheyanne… OF COURSE I made these just for you! Haha. I just, like, knew that you loved pancakes, white chocolate and strawberries. Like, instinctively. LOL. Thanks Cheyanne! <3
Megan says
I’m serious right now, these pancakes are making my mouth water! lol I used to think that fruits had no place in pancakes, but thankfully my eyes have opened to the deliciousness that is fresh fruit for breakfast. But strawberries AND white chocolate chips? That is just perfections!
demeter | beaming baker says
Megan, no fruits in pancakes?!?! *gasp!* Haha. Yeah, I’m not going to lie, fruits + sweet treats were not in my initial baking vocab. But you and I are here now, enlightened by this delicious combo. Ha! Thanks for stopping by Megan! I hope you enjoy the pancakes. 🙂
Laura ~ RYG says
Hmmm, favorite pancake topping is definitely blueberries! However, I love the idea of white chocolate chips. But the strawberries are prettier =)
demeter | beaming baker says
Laura, I’m right there with you! Blueberries just make everything taste better. Sometimes I think they make my smoothies taste like chocolate. LOL. But this combo of strawberries and white chocolate chips is just heaven. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

OH MY GOSH. You have officially won at pancakes. I’m a dark chocolate person and usually white chocolate anything doesn’t tempt me, but I’m sitting here looking at this (with my lonely hardboiled egg for company) and dreaming pancake dreams. Pinning!
demeter | beaming baker says
Yay, I finally won at something! Haha. I’m dark chocolate all the way, but these pancakes totally changed my mind. I say, lonely hardboiled egg, begone! Welcome, a giant stack of these babies! Thanks for pinning and thanks for stopping by Kate. 🙂

Between these gorgeous pancakes and your love for alliteration, I’m kind of girl-crushing on you pretty hard. Just sayin’.
demeter | beaming baker says
Stephanie, I think the girl-crush pretty much runs both ways, like, WOAH! Between your wealth of funny bones, delicious + healthy caesar dressing, and complete just getting it with the plastic taco purse: DUH! Steph, you’re awesome! <3
