Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons melted butter (for cinnamon swirl)
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1–2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
Instructions
Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, and melted butter. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ones until just mixed—remember, a few lumps are perfectly fine!
Make the Cinnamon Swirl: In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and melted butter until well combined.
Heat the Griddle: Preheat your griddle over medium heat and give it a light greasing to prevent sticking.
Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the hot griddle. Drizzle the cinnamon swirl mixture over the pancake batter in a spiral pattern.
Flip and Finish: Once you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges are set, flip the pancake. Cook until both sides are a beautiful golden brown.
Prepare the Glaze: In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, mixing until combined, then add just enough milk to achieve your desired glaze consistency.
Serve: Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over your stack of pancakes and enjoy!
Notes
Serve with fresh fruit or a side of bacon for a perfect balance.
