From OREO® Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes to Shrimp n’ Grits, Cracker Barrel is introducing delicious new dishes to celebrate the arrival of spring

Lebanon, TN  (RestaurantNews.com)  Spring arrives early this year at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® as the brand elevates its menu with the addition of new sweet and savory menu offerings – including OREO® Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes, and Southern-inspired entrees like a Louisiana-Style Shrimp Skillet and Shrimp n’ Grits.

Pancakes take center stage at Cracker Barrel this spring. For those looking for a sweet start to the day or a delicious shareable to split with the table, the stuffed cheesecake pancake breakfast is a delight. Choose from the new OREO® Stuffed Cheesecake Pancakes which feature Cracker Barrel’s famous buttery pancakes with crispy edges layered with cheesecake filling and topped with OREO® cookie pieces, whipped cream and chocolate drizzle or opt for an existing guest favorite, Strawberry Cheesecake Pancakes including cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar alongside strawberry syrup. Both options are served with two eggs and a choice of thick-sliced bacon or smoked sausage.

And the fluffy pancake goodness doesn’t stop there! Cracker Barrel is introducing new Signature Pancake Platters, available in six different flavor toppings – Blueberry, Pecan, Chocolate Chip, Fresh Strawberry, Cinnamon Spiced Apples and Country Peach. Each platter is served with eggs cooked to order and a choice of bacon or sausage.

Equally as craveworthy this spring are two other all-new dishes packed with country-style flavor and zest. The Louisiana-Style Shrimp Skillet features grilled shrimp with a zesty creole sauce, served with new seasoned rice, grilled parmesan bread for dipping, and choice of a country side. Breakfast all day and shrimp lovers alike will also love the Shrimp n’ Grits, featuring tender shrimp simmered in a savory and zesty creole sauce with Andouille sausage, sweet onions, celery and red peppers served over rich n’ creamy “dinner-style” grits, accompanied by grilled parmesan sourdough bread. This dish is exclusively available as part of Cracker Barrel’s iconic all day breakfast menu for a limited time.

“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. “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.”
