Happy Valentine’s Day! I wanted to get this recipe up before the holiday, because the combo of Nutella and strawberries just seemed perfect for VDay, but didn’t quite make it. Oh well, treats like this should be enjoyed year round anyway, right? I always look forward to whipping up a big breakfast every weekend, and while I usually go the savory route (breakfast sandwiches are my favorite!), occasionally inspiration strikes for a sweet treat too.
Some good looking strawberries from Costco inspired these pancakes. Since I’ve noticed it’s sometimes hard to taste the Nutella in baked goods, I added Nutella to both the pancake batter and the warm strawberry topping. These were the perfect indulgent way to start the day!

Printable Recipe
Ingredients:
Pancakes:
1 cup white whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1 cup milk
1/4 cup Nutella
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Nutella Strawberry Topping:
1 1/2 cup chopped strawberries
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons Nutella
Directions:
To make the pancakes, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Whisk in the egg, milk, Nutella, butter, and vanilla extract until just combined. Pour 1/4 cup scoops of batter onto a greased nonstick skillet over medium heat. Flip the pancakes when bubbles start to appear on top, after about 3 minutes. Cook the other side until golden brown. Makes 7 pancakes.
To make the Nutella strawberry topping, place chopped strawberries, sugar, and Nutella in a small pot and simmer over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and Nutella is melted, about 2 minutes. Spoon warm topping over pancakes. Makes 2 servings.

I recently made gluten-free Nutella cake and it was so good. It is so much fun to use Nutella as an actual ingredient. I’ll sure try out on pancakes. Looks yummy!
I just finished my Costco jars of Nutella…oh dear, oh dear! If only I had waited!!
I am so obsessed with Nutella- looks gREAT!
Mmmm, double Nutella! Sounds great!
This is a fantastic way to start a day!! Strawberries and nutella is one of my favorite combos… I’d love to try these with bananas too!

I love Nutella but have never made Nutella pancakes before, they look oh my god delicious and the strawberries are a great addition. x
These look so fantastic. I could eat them right now.
I’ll be looking forward to making this. I love pancakes, Nuttella and strawberries, and you’ve managed to beautifully combine them.
I would say that Nutella pancakes alone would be fabulous but add those strawberries and I have run out of superlatives.
Thanks to all! I wish I had these for breakfast this morning.
Sophia – I saw it at Costco and somehow managed to resist, but I’m going to get some there when we run out!
Elly – Crepes sound fabulous too – do you have a recipe with Nutella in the batter? Apolinaras makes the best crepes and usually puts Nutella in the filling
These are a heavenly delicious treat Kerstin! I like the strawberry and Nutella combo!
Holy Cow! These look amazing! Can I come over and eat one of these now…..mmmm
Mmm! Nutella and pancakes sounds de-lish! The strawberries are nice, too.
I hope you had a great Valentine’s Day! A big stack of pancakes with strawberries on top sounds like the best morning ever!
