Sweet Cream Strawberry PanCAKE 🍰

It really doesn’t take much to make someone feel special on their day—and this Father’s Day, we’re giving dads the love they deserve. After all, I did my research and found that in 2024, Americans spent 50% more on Mother’s Day than on Father’s Day. But dads play an important role too, and this year, we’re showing our appreciation with something sweet: my Sweet Cream Strawberry Pancake breakfast. It’s the most affordable, delicious breakfast-in-bed your dad will ever have. We’re starting with Sweet Cream Pioneer Pancake Mix, adding in a handful of fresh, ripe strawberries, a few pantry staples, and topping it off with fluffy whipped cream mixed with chopped berries. It’s easy. It’s mouthwatering. And it’s guaranteed to make Dad feel like a king this Father’s Day.

Poured my extra ingredients into my favorite Pioneer Sweet Cream Mix.




Wait for our masterpiece to cool down before adding the whipped cream.

Add the rest of your chopped strawberries to the whipped cream for extra deliciousness.

👝 How to Store Leftovers
To store leftovers of your strawberry breakfast bake, let it cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container or cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or foil. It will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days. For longer storage, cut the bake into individual portions, wrap them in plastic wrap, and place them in a freezer-safe container or bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat in the microwave or oven until warm. For the best taste and texture, add whipped cream and fresh strawberries just before serving.
🤔 Common Questions
Yes, you can use frozen strawberries! Just make sure to thaw and drain them well before adding to the batter to avoid excess moisture, which can affect the texture of the bake.
Absolutely. You can bake it the night before and store it covered in the refrigerator. Simply reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm the whole dish in a low oven the next morning. Add fresh toppings right before serving for the best results.
