Cinnamon Swirl: This easy swirl is ready in seconds! Brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon create that warm and cozy flavor everyone loves.

Frosting: Totally optional, but totally worth it! This cream cheese glaze is a rich and smooth blend of softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, creating a perfectly sweet and tangy topping for your pancakes.

  • Add some pumpkin pie spice or some apple pie spice to the cinnamon swirl for a fragrant and cozy Fall flavor!
  • Pop a few blueberries or sliced strawberries onto each pancake in Step 1.
  • Some cocoa, chocolate shavings, or peanut butter can also be added to the batter before cooking.
  • Besides the optional frosting, cinnamon roll pancakes can be topped with maple syrup, fudge sauce, cinnamon sugar, or a luscious strawberry sauce.

For the Frosting (Optional)

  • To make the pancakes, in a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and vanilla.

  • Create a well in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Stir with a spoon just until moistened, the batter should be lumpy.

  • To make the cinnamon swirl, combine the butter, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and 3 tablespoons of the prepared pancake batter. Mix well and transfer to a piping bag with a thin tip or freezer bag and snip off the corner.

  • To make the frosting, mix cream cheese & butter with a hand-mixer on high until fluffy. Add in powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time until mixed in. Mix in vanilla and salt. Add the milk a little bit at a time to reach desired consistency.

  • To cook the pancakes, heat a lightly oiled non-stick skillet or griddle to medium heat (350℉). Scoop ¼ cup portions of batter onto the griddle. Gently squeeze a swirl of the sugar mixture into each pancake.

  • Once the bottom of the pancake is golden and bubbles on the top side begin to pop, flip the pancakes and cook for an additional two to three minutes or until cooked through. Wipe the skillet with a damp paper towel between batches.

  • Top with frosting and serve warm.

The frosting can be thicker and spread over the pancakes or thinned out with milk and poured or drizzled over the pancakes.
Leftover cinnamon roll pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
