Description

Delicious pancakes that combine the flavors of cinnamon rolls with fluffy pancakes, topped with cream cheese icing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Flour (can use gluten-free flour blend)
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Milk (any non-dairy milk works well)
  • 1 large Egg (or flax egg for vegan option)
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil (or melted butter)
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 4 ounces Cream Cheese (or mascarpone)
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter (for cinnamon swirl)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vegetable oil, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just blended.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and the remaining melted butter to make the cinnamon swirl.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet and drizzle some of the cinnamon swirl mixture on top.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip the pancake and cook until golden brown.
  7. For the cream cheese icing, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a little milk until smooth.
  8. Serve the pancakes warm with the cream cheese icing drizzled on top.

Notes

Ensure your baking powder is fresh for the best rise. Don’t overmix the batter; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
