Healthy Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes

Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes

Happy Saturday morning!

 
 Hope everyone is getting a good start to their weekend. I had some time to whip up an extra delicious breakfast today! As a kid strawberry shortcake was one of my favorite desserts and I loved new york cheesecake pancakes at IHOP with berries but these are much better for you! After I went on a run I came back and made some pancakes on the griddle and enjoyed a decadent Saturday breakfast of pancakes, Greek yogurt, and berries. It's a great combo of protein and carbs so it makes a pretty good post-workout meal plus it's delicious and super easy!
