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
  • 12 tablespoons milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix the two together until just blendedโ€”donโ€™t worry about a few lumps!
  2. Make the cinnamon swirl: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until well combined.
  3. Heat the griddle: Preheat your griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle. Drizzle the cinnamon swirl mixture over it in a nice spiral pattern.
  5. Flip and finish: Once you see bubbles forming and the edges looking set, flip the pancake and cook until both sides are golden brown.
  6. Prepare the glaze: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth, then gradually add in the powdered sugar and just enough milk to reach your desired glaze consistency.
  7. Serve: Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the pancakes and enjoy!

Notes

For variations, consider adding nuts or fruit into the batter, or try different spices for a seasonal twist.
