Time 30m

Yield 2 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 cup almond milk
2 tablespoons maple syrup
3 tablespoons vegan margarine, or refined coconut oil, at room temperature
5 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • In a small bowl, mix together the margarine, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Transfer to a pastry bag or plastic zip-top bag and snip off one corner.

CINNAMON ROLL PANCAKES

These fluffy cinnamon roll pancakes have a cinnamon swirl and are topped with cream cheese icing!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, (just melted (not boiling))
6 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter
2 ounces cream cheese, (at room temperature)
¾ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg, (lightly beaten)
1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, stir together the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Scoop the filling into a quart-sized heavy zip baggie and set it aside (see *Tips below).
  • In a small pan, heat the butter over low heat until melted. Turn off the heat and whisk in the cream cheese until it is almost smooth. Sift the powdered sugar into the pan, stir and add in vanilla extract. Set the pan aside while you make the pancakes.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk in the milk, egg and oil, just until the batter is moistened (a few small lumps are fine).
  • Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium-heat and spray with nonstick spray. Use an ice cream scoop (or ⅓ cup measuring cup) to add the batter to the pan. Use the bottom of the scoop or cup to spread the batter into a circle (about 4-inches in diameter). Reduce the heat to medium low. Snip the corner of your baggie of cinnamon filling and squeeze the filling into the open corner. When your pancake begins to form bubbles, add the filling. Starting at the center of the pancake, squeeze the filling on top of the pancake batter in a swirl (just as you see in a regular cinnamon roll). Cook the pancake 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bubbles begin popping on top of the pancake and it's golden brown on the bottom. Slide a thin, wide metal spatula underneath the pancake and gently but quickly flip it over. Cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until the other side is golden as well. When you flip the pancake onto a plate, you will see that the cinnamon filling has created a crater-swirl of cinnamon. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel, and repeat with the remaining pancake batter and cinnamon filling. Re-warm the glaze briefly, if needed. Serve pancakes topped with a drizzle of glaze.

CINNAMON ROLL PANCAKES



Cinnamon roll pancakes image

Serve these cinnamon roll pancakes for breakfast or brunch with caramel yogurt and maple syrup. They also make an inspired dessert for Pancake Day

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch, Dessert

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

145g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
40g butter , melted
140ml milk
3 tbsp light brown soft sugar
1 tbsp maple syrup , plus extra to serve (optional)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
6 tbsp toffee or caramel yogurt , to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Weigh the flour in a large jug or bowl. Add the baking powder, caster sugar, ½ tsp cinnamon and a generous pinch of salt. Whisk to combine. Crack in the eggs, add ½ the butter and all the milk, then whisk to a smooth batter. Will keep in the fridge overnight.
  • Stir the rest of the cinnamon, the light brown sugar and the maple syrup into the remaining melted butter. Add 3 tbsp of the pancake mixture and mix. Transfer to a squeezy bottle fitted with a small nozzle or a piping bag.
  • When you're ready to cook, pour a little oil in your largest frying pan, and wipe out any excess with some kitchen paper. Keeping the pan over a low-medium heat, spoon 2-3 tbsp mounds into the pan for each pancake, leaving space for them to expand as they cook. You should get three or four in at a time. Use the cinnamon mixture in your bottle or piping bag to pipe swirls on top of each pancake. When the pancakes start to set around the edges and you see bubbles appear on top, carefully flip and cook for another 2-3 mins until golden and cooked through. Keep warm in a low oven while you continue cooking the rest of the batter.
  • Serve the pancakes with yogurt and extra maple syrup, if you like.

Cinnamon Bun Pancakes image

Craving cinnamon buns but don't have time to wait for dough to rise? These inspired pancakes are the perfect shortcut to that sweet, caramelized cinnamon flavor. And instead of maple syrup, we made the same white icing used on the original.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 16

2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons milk
Pinch of fine salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/4 cups milk, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • For the swirl: Combine the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Pour into a small plastic re-sealable bag and cut 1/4 inch off a corner and store it with the opening upright in a small glass until ready to use.
  • For the icing: Combine the confectioners' sugar, butter, milk and salt in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and set side.
  • For the pancakes: Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl until combined. Whisk together the milk, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl until well combined. Whisk the butter into the milk mixture then add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, whisking until smooth and well combined.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Ladle about a 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Starting from the middle of the batter, pipe out a large swirl of the cinnamon swirl mixture with the outer most part of the swirl near the edge of the batter. Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to keep them evenly spaced apart, and repeat with the swirl. Cook until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more. Serve hot and swirl-side up, or transfer to a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed. Top with a drizzle of the icing before serving.

CINNAMON ROLL PANCAKES



Cinnamon Roll Pancakes image

Sweet and delicious buttermilk pancakes with a butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon swirl filling. These are great any time of the day and less time consuming than making real cinnamon rolls!

Provided by squeeziebrb

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Pancake Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

¾ cup milk
2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
5 ½ tablespoons packed brown sugar
¼ cup butter, melted
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ cup butter, softened
2 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Stir milk and vinegar together in a bowl; set aside until milk "sours", about 5 minutes.
  • Mix flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Whisk egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract into milk mixture. Slowly pour milk mixture into flour mixture while whisking constantly until batter is just moistened and evenly mixed. Lumps are fine.
  • Combine brown sugar, 1/4 cup melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Place a 1-quart resealable bag into a glass or cup. Pour cinnamon mixture into the bag; refrigerate until filling is as thick as toothpaste, about 10 minutes.
  • Mix 1/4 cup softened butter and cream cheese together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave for 40 seconds. Stir mixture with a whisk or fork until smooth. Continue heating in microwave and stirring until mixture is completely melted. Stir confectioners' sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract into cream cheese mixture until icing is smooth.
  • Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour about 2/3 cup batter into the center of griddle. Cook pancake until bubbles start to appear, 2 to 3 minutes. Cut 1 corner off the center of the bag with filling. Swirl filling over pancake, leaving enough space around edges that filling doesn't touch the griddle.
  • Flip pancake and cook until other side is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle icing over pancake. Repeat with remaining ingredients, spraying the griddle with cooking spray between each pancake.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
  • Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the pancake batter for extra flavor.
  • Make sure the pancake batter is not too thick or too thin. It should be about the consistency of heavy cream.
  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat before cooking the pancakes.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  • Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon swirl pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a stack of fluffy pancakes that are sure to please everyone at the table.
