Let them eat cake! For breakfast, dessert or snack time, my Pancake Cake recipe is fun, easy and delicious. Perfect for Mother’s day, Father’s Day or any day.
This recipe couldn’t be easier. Just make pancake batter a little looser than your typical batter. Make a bunch of thin pancakes and then stack them up with layers of creamy maple icing.
Top the whole thing off with fresh berries and serve with mimosas. Perfection!

Ingredients
Pancakes
- 1-2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar

Instructions
Pancakes
-
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Whisk in milk, eggs, melted Plant Butter and vanilla. Batter will be thin.
-
Heat 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until a water droplets sizzle when dropped on the surface. Add about a teaspoon Plant Butter and melt. Pour scant ½ cup batter into skillet. Batter should spread to about a 6 to 7-inch circle. Cook pancake until bubbles form on top and edges look dry. Flip and cook 1 minute. Remove pancake and repeat with remaining batter to make 7 pancakes. Let pancakes cool before assembly.
Icing
-
Beat Plant Butter and confectioners’ sugar in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed. Beat in plant milk, maple syrup and cinnamon and beat until fluffy. If icing is too thick, add a bit more plant milk.
Assembly
-
Place one pancake on serving dish and top with about 2 tablespoons icing. Spread icing almost to edge of pancake. Top with another pancake and repeat with remaining pancakes and icing.
-
Top with fresh berries if desired.
