Description

Indulge in fluffy, delightful cinnamon roll pancakes drizzled with a creamy glaze, perfect for a weekend breakfast treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted (for cinnamon swirl)
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for cream cheese glaze)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for cream cheese glaze)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Allow to rest.
  4. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the cinnamon swirl. Transfer to a piping bag.
  5. Beat cream cheese until smooth, then mix in powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to create the glaze.
  6. Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  7. Pour 1/4 cup batter on the skillet, pipe the cinnamon swirl onto each pancake, and cook until bubbles form.
  8. Flip and cook until golden brown.
  9. Repeat with the remaining batter and serve warm topped with cream cheese glaze.

Notes

  • Keep the heat moderate to prevent burning the cinnamon swirl.
  • You can substitute whole wheat flour for a healthier option.
  • These pancakes are best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for a day.
