Cinnamon Roll Pancake Recipe

When this mom returns from her travels, the kids always ask her for their favorite dinner: pancakes! This time, I got a little more indulgent and made them Cinnabon inspired pancakes. I’ve been traveling all week. All week meaning Sunday through Sunday with a very short 24 hour pit-stop at our house. First, I went to California to learn about how California Strawberries are grown and then I went to Austin, TX to speak at BlogHer Food (a food blogging conference).

Three times times this week I had layovers at airports where a Cinnabon shop was on the way to my gate. Oh.the.smell. The Cinnabon smell is intoxicating. On the weekends, I sometimes make my whole wheat cinnamon rolls recipe. The giant cream cheese ones, of course, are even more heavenly and loaded with calories -I’m sure. We love breakfast so much at my house that we have an entire night (Thursdays) dedicated to all things breakfast.

It’s also a great way to stay on a budget since breakfast recipes tend to not be very expensive. When the kids asked for pancakes, I immediately thought: maybe I can re-create the “sauce” and pump up my perfect pancake recipe to become more “cinnamon-rolly”. Yes, that is a direct quote from inside my head.

These pancakes are a mix between the original pancake recipe that I serve many Thursday nights and a cinnamon roll. To top it, I added a cream cheese glaze that will knock your socks off. Note: I don’t promise this to be a healthy meal. Skip future treats and eat lots of fruit for the rest of the day.

That’s what I do. I’ll leave you pinning, printing or sharing this recipe (all options below) while I go unpack my 3 day old suitcase. Unpacking is not my thing. These pancakes are delicious on their own. They have a strong cinnamon flavor and when you add the glaze…the entire combo will knock your socks off. It’s just how it goes.

1. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar and cinnamon. 2. Make a “volcano” well in the middle (as my son calls it) and pour in the milk, egg, vanilla and melted butter; mix with a fork or whisk until smooth. 3. Heat a griddle or large pan over medium high heat (I set my griddle at 375degrees). Pour or scoop ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.

Wait until bubbles form to flip. Brown on the other side and serve with butter and blueberry syrup. 4. To make the glaze: in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, reduce heat to simmer/low. Add the softened cream cheese and begin to whisk. It might look clumpy at first but it will slowly blend into a thick mixture. 5. Slowly whisk in powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Continue to mix well until it’s evenly combined. If It’s too thick to pour over pancakes, add another Tablespoon or two of milk. 6. Drizzle glaze over pancakes.

Another thing, is that they don't have much work right now in the assignments. This is a good critique of Textbroker. Interesting hub. I've heard of Textbroker before. It is good to know that it is not a scam and that you actually get paid. You might get bored pretty fast- it's nothing exciting. But it is nice to get money that quickly! I actually just saw this site and signed up, but haven't written anything on it as of yet. This hub is for informative on the site.

These look so fluffy and delicious. Love it. I actually have never made yeast pancakes but I think its time I tried it soon. Congratulations on top 9 today Shulie. How could i have missed this! Such wonderfully fluffy pancakes are what Sundays are all about. Congratulations for being Top 9! I love hearing that your son and his college roommate are coming home and your pancake weekends can resume!

They sure look delicious. Oh these pancakes are so delectable! This gets noted down/bookmarked! I have never had Yeast Pancakes,so I must try some day! With maple syrup,these will be divine,I am sure! A nice looking stack of pancakes! I like your idea of serving them with lemon curd. In our family the girls are the pancake queens and are always on the lookout for something a bit different.
