Sweet maple glaze meets classic cinnamon roll pancakes in this irresistible breakfast fusion. Fluffy pancake layers swirl with warm cinnamon and drizzle with creamy icing, inviting you to savor each indulgent bite.


Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter:

  • 1 cup (240 ml) all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) sugar
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) salt

Instructions

  1. Blend dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt) thoroughly in a mixing vessel.
  2. Whisk wet components (buttermilk, milk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract) in a separate container until smooth.
  3. Gently merge wet and dry mixtures, stirring minimally to maintain a slightly lumpy consistency.
  4. Prepare a non-stick cooking surface at medium heat, lightly coating with butter or cooking spray.
  5. Ladle pancake batter onto the heated surface, allowing approximately 1/4 cup per pancake.
  6. Monitor pancakes until surface bubbles emerge, indicating readiness for flipping.
  7. Rotate pancakes and continue cooking until both sides achieve a golden-brown complexion.
  8. Transfer to serving plates, presenting with a luxurious maple syrup cascade.
  9. Enhance visual appeal and flavor by sprinkling ground cinnamon across the surface.
  10. Optional: Crown the pancakes with a delicate whipped cream dollop or a gentle powdered sugar dusting for added decadence.

Notes

  • Customize batter consistency by adding more milk if too thick, ensuring perfectly fluffy pancakes every time.
  • Prevent overmixing by gently folding wet and dry ingredients, which keeps pancakes tender and light.
  • Swap buttermilk with dairy-free alternatives like almond or oat milk for lactose-intolerant or vegan dietary needs.
  • Control heat carefully to avoid burning, using medium-low temperature for even golden-brown pancake surfaces.
