No reviews

A cozy and elegant twist on classic pancakes. This pancake cake with berries is made by stacking fluffy pancakes with layers of whipped cream and fresh mixed berries. Perfect for brunch, birthdays, or a simple treat that feels special without being complicated.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • Pancakes (about 10–12, 6-inch size, freshly made or prepped ahead)

  • 2 cups fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream (whipped with a little sugar to taste)

  • 23 tbsp powdered sugar (for dusting and sweetening cream)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional, for the cream)

Instructions

  • Prepare your pancakes and let them cool slightly.

  • Whip the cream with sugar (and vanilla if using) until soft peaks form.

  • Place one pancake on a serving plate, spread a thin layer of whipped cream, and scatter some berries.

  • Repeat the layering process until all pancakes are stacked.

  • Finish with a generous topping of whipped cream and fresh berries.

  • Chill for 20–30 minutes before slicing for cleaner layers, or serve immediately for a rustic look.

Notes

  • Use smaller pancakes (around 6 inches) for better stacking.

  • A quick berry compote between layers adds extra flavor.

  • Best enjoyed the same day, but leftovers can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 1 day.
