Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Ingredients

    For the pancakes:

  • 5 oz all purpose flour (1 cup, if measuring)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 egg
  • For the filling:

  • 3 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • For the glaze:

  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2 oz cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk to combine the flour, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk to combine the milk, melted butter, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and stir until the flour has disappeared, but there are still plenty of lumps.
  2. Make the filling by stirring to combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Prepare the glaze by melting the butter and cream cheese together in the microwave. Stir in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and stir to combine.
  3. Heat up a griddle over medium heat, and if desired, grease the pan with a little bit of butter. Use a 1/4 cup measuring scoop to portion out the pancakes. Immediately spoon over a tablespoon or so of the cinnamon swirl, in an outward circular motion from the center.
  4. Cook for another minute, then flip. Cook for one or two more minutes.
  5. Top the pancakes with the glaze, and enjoy!
