Description

Cinnamon Roll Pancakes combine the fluffy texture of pancakes with the sweet, spiced swirl of a cinnamon roll, topped with a rich cream cheese glaze.


Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla. Combine with dry ingredients.
  3. In a small bowl, mix softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon to make the cinnamon filling. Pour into a zip-top bag and snip a small corner off.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto skillet. Once bubbles form, pipe a spiral of cinnamon filling onto the pancake. Cook for another minute, then flip and cook for 1–2 minutes more.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon filling.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk cream cheese, milk, and powdered sugar until smooth to make the glaze.
  8. Drizzle glaze over warm pancakes and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure cinnamon filling is soft enough to pipe but not too runny.
  • Use a squeeze bottle for cleaner spirals of cinnamon filling.
  • Pancakes are best served fresh with glaze poured right before serving.
