Peanut Butter Jelly Sandwich Pancakes take the childhood classic sandwich into a luxurious breakfast treat. Enjoy these layered pancakes of smooth and creamy peanut butter and your favourite jam!

Hey everyone! These peanut butter jelly sandwich pancakes will definitely be a blast from the past for your weekend morning breakfast! Who can say no to that?

Peanut Butter and Jelly is a household staple for kids! I love a good old pb&j, though admittedly I haven't had one since I was a kid! I was inspired by these pancakes after purchasing some Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie Oreos, which are certainly delicious! I didn't include any in these pancakes but feel free to add some on top for even more peanut buttery goodness! Now I’m actually really curious to try out that combination…

I first tried this recipe by making a homemade jam with some butter, blueberries, and brown sugar. That homemade jam was delicious but to make this recipe a lot simpler I went out and purchased some jam! Also you would need a boatload of blueberries to make enough jam so that it's super saucy and delicious! But if you’re ambitious and have the time and ingredients to do it, then I highly recommend making your own jam!

As you know I simply adore my pancakes on the weekend. Having this childhood favourite really makes this weekend breakfast so much more special and homey. If you’re looking for more childhood classics in the form of pancakes, try these Chocolate Chip Cookie Pancakes with Creamy Milk Dip, Chocolate M&M Pancakes, and these Ultimate Chocolatey S’mores Pancakes!

All you need for these peanut butter jelly sandwich pancakes is some peanut butter in the batter. Not only does the peanut butter make the pancakes absolutely delicious, but it also helps them become super fluffy and soft!

Ingredients For Peanut Butter Jelly Pancakes

For these peanut butter pancakes, you’ll need:

  • Rolled oats: Blended to make oat flour. Alternatively you can use 1 Cup of all purpose flour instead.

  • Egg: If you can’t have eggs, you can make a chia egg. However, I can’t guarantee the results will be exactly the same as I have never tried this myself.

  • Baking powder: Baking powder is important in pancakes. This contributes to the bubbles forming while the pancakes are cooking, and helps to make pancakes light and fluffy.

  • Honey: I always add it for sweetness in my pancakes!

  • Peanut butter: For these pancakes, a natural, creamy peanut butter is best. This is what helps make the pancakes fluffy, and makes for a delicious sauce blended with the jam.

  • Vanilla extract: A little goes a long way here in terms of adding lots of flavour in our batter!

  • Butter: To add onto a pan when cooking the pancakes. Even if you’re using a non-stick pan, you still want some grease on the pan to ensure your pancakes won’t stick. I prefer butter because it adds some flavour to the pancakes.

How to Make Peanut Butter Pancakes

Making these peanut butter pancakes is fairly straightforward! It only takes a few steps to make the batter. Cooking the pancakes is a breeze!

Make the Batter

  1. Preheat your oven to 200 F. This step is always essential for me when making pancakes! While we’re cooking our pancakes, we want to keep the cooked pancakes warm. When each pancake has finished cooking, transfer it onto a baking tray and add it to the oven while you cook the remaining pancakes.

  2. Mix your ingredients. First, add all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Either by hand or using a stand mixer, begin whisking these ingredients together.

  3. Mix your wet ingredients. If whisking by hand, in a separate bowl, combine your wet ingredients together. If you’re using a stand mixer, add the wet ingredients into the dry mixture.

  4. Mix in the dry and wet ingredients. Keep adding the wet mixture while whisking until you have a thick but runny batter.

Cook Your Pancakes

  1. Heat a pan on medium heat. When the pan is hot, add some butter or non-stick cooking spray.

  2. Scoop batter onto the pan. I find using a 1/4 cup measuring cup really helps get that perfect portion.

  3. Cook until you see bubbles begin to form on the surface. This will take about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  4. Transfer the cooked pancake onto a baking tray. Then, put the baking tray in the oven and repeat steps 2-4 for the remaining batter.

  5. Begin layering the pancakes when all pancakes have cooked.

Layering the Pancakes

It’s time for the fun part! Here’s how to complete your stack:

  1. Place one pancake on a plate and spoon out a bit of jelly. Gently spread it using circular motions.

  2. Stack another pancake and repeat until you’ve reached the top pancake.

  3. When you’ve reached the top pancake, add more jelly as desired and more peanut butter. Serve hot and enjoy!
