Soft, fluffy pancakes with a warm cinnamon swirl and creamy glaze, perfect for breakfast or special occasions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until smooth. Scoop the mixture into a piping bag or resealable plastic bag. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or non-stick spray.
  4. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Snip the corner of the piping bag and pipe a swirl of the cinnamon mixture onto each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
  5. Gently flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add more milk if needed for a drizzle consistency.
  7. Stack the pancakes on a plate and drizzle generously with the cream cheese glaze. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.’, ‘Use medium heat to cook pancakes evenly without burning the cinnamon swirl.’, ‘Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while finishing the batch.’, ‘For a holiday twist, add nutmeg and ginger to the cinnamon swirl.’]
