Decadent Oreo Pancakes

Ingredients

• All-purpose flour (1 cup)
• Granulated sugar (2 tablespoons)
• Baking powder (2 teaspoons)
• Salt (1/4 teaspoon)
• Milk (1 cup)
• Egg (1, beaten)
• Unsalted butter (2 tablespoons, melted)
• Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
• Oreo cookies (6, crushed)
• Whipped cream (for serving)
• Chocolate syrup (for drizzling)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
4. Fold in the crushed Oreo cookies until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with additional butter or cooking spray.
6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
8. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
9. Serve the Oreo pancakes warm, topped with generous dollops of whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and additional crushed Oreo cookies for garnish.
