Oreo Pancakes?! Cracker Barrel's New Spring Menu Is a Must-Try!
It's hard to believe that Spring is around the corner. And what better way to embrace the season than with fresh new food? At least, that's what Cracker Barrel has in mind. Ahead of warmer weather and flowers blooming, the beloved country-style restaurant is rolling out its new seasonal lineup early. And from what we're reading, they bring the perfect mix of cozy comfort and springtime indulgence. From pancakes stuffed with cheesecake (and yes, there's an Oreo version) to Creole-inspired shrimp dishes packed with zesty flavor, fans have plenty of reasons to gather around the table. Ready to dig in? Here's everything on the Cracker Barrel spring menu for 2025.
What's for breakfast? According to Cracker Barrel, dessert! Its indulgent new Oreo Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes layers buttery pancakes with rich cheesecake filling. We can't say no to this stack topped with crushed Oreo cookies, whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate. But if you prefer a fruity twist, the returning Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes offer a classic alternative with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar.
And that's not all for pancake lovers! The restaurant is also debuting Signature Pancake Platters in six delicious flavors—Blueberry, Pecan, Chocolate Chip, Fresh Strawberry, Cinnamon Spiced Apples and Country Peach. Each platter comes with a side of eggs and your choice of thick-cut bacon or smoked sausage.
Savory fans aren't left out this spring. Cracker Barrel is introducing two new shrimp-forward dishes, each bringing a taste of the South to the menu. The Louisiana-Style Shrimp Skillet features grilled shrimp smothered in a zesty Creole sauce, served over seasoned rice with grilled Parmesan bread on the side. Meanwhile, the Shrimp n' Grits offers a comforting combination of shrimp simmered in Creole sauce with Andouille sausage, onions, celery and red peppers. It's all served over rich, creamy grits with grilled Parmesan sourdough bread.
'Our spring menu lineup is just as bold and savory as it is sweet and indulgent,' said Sarah Moore, Chief Marketing Officer for Cracker Barrel, in a press release. 'Our new Creole Shrimp skillets appease guests with an appetite for fresh flavors and zest this season; for those wanting something a bit more indulgent, our new Oreo Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes, a new twist on our staple Strawberry Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes, are sure to delight.'
The Cracker Barrel spring menu also introduces crave-worthy appetizers and drinks perfect for enjoying with others. Order the Onion Petals with Country Comeback Sauce for the table. These lightly battered, crispy-fried onion petals come sprinkled with garlic salt and served with a zesty dipping sauce. Looking for a sweet treat? The Strawberry Icebox Pie offers a creamy, refreshingly tart dessert topped with fresh sliced strawberries and whipped topping.
For a fun beverage option, Cracker Barrel's new Pancake Latte infuses espresso with sweet maple flavor, steamed milk and a drizzle of 100 percent pure syrup. Guests can also sip on a Strawberry Peach Lemonade or Spritzer, blending old-fashioned lemonade with strawberry and peach puree for a perfect spring drink. Psst: for an adult twist, the spritzer version swaps lemonade for Moscato wine.
So far, these new menu items have received serious heart eyes online. Cracker Barrel announced its Oreo Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes on Instagram—and fans were impressed. 'Okay I'm going immediately,' wrote one excited commenter. 'Oh my yummy goodness,' another added.
With all these fresh new flavors, the Cracker Barrel spring menu is one to take a Sunday drive for. But don't wait too long—these seasonal delights won't be around forever!
