Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Step 1

Prepare Cinnamon Filling first:In a medium bowl, mix butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Scoop the filling into a small zip baggie and set aside. (Set this aside and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. You want it just slightly thick.)

Step 2

Prepare Pancake batter: In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk in milk, oil and egg just until batter is moistened. (a few small lumps are fine)

Step 3

OR If using a boxed mix, prepare according to package directions.

Step 4

Prepare Cream Cheese glaze: In a medium glass or microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter and cream cheese until melted. Whisk together until smooth, then whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or griddle over low heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Pour about 1/2 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet.Snip the corner of your cinnamon filling baggie and squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top of the pancake.When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip carefully with a spatula and cook until lightly browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer pancake to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the rest of the pancakes.

Step 6

When ready to serve, spoon warmed cream cheese glaze on top of each pancake. Enjoy!
