  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: Serves approximately 4 people

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour (gluten-free option available)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (non-dairy alternative works)
  • 1 large egg (or flax egg for vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Cinnamon filling: 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • Cream cheese glaze: 4 ounces cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cinnamon filling by mixing melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Transfer to a ziplock bag and let thicken.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, vegetable oil, and egg; stir gently until just combined.
  3. For the glaze, heat cream cheese and melted butter until warm in a microwave-safe bowl. Whisk until smooth and mix in powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
  4. Preheat your skillet over low heat. Pour half a cup of batter onto it and pipe the cinnamon filling in a swirl on top. Cook until bubbles form; flip carefully.
  5. Stack pancakes high and drizzle with cream cheese glaze before serving.
