If you’re a pancake lover, you’ll want to indulge in my Cinnamon Bun Pancakes. Fluffy and sweet, they’re a great alternative to cinnamon buns.

Ingredients //

For the dough:

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 3 Tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 Tablespoon cinnamon
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup milk
• 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 Tablespoon vanilla

For the frosting:

• 1 cup confectioners sugar
• 2 Tablespoons melted butter
• 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions //

Step 1:

Put all of the dry ingredients in a bowl.

Step 2:

Whisk the dry ingredients together.

Step 3:

Add the wet ingredients and whisk together until well combined.

Step 4:

Preheat a griddle or large saute pan over medium heat. Cook until brown on both sides.

Step 5:

They are delicious just like this but even better with frosting.

Step 6:

Whisk the ingredients for the frosting together until smooth and a pouring consistency. If too thick add more milk, if too thin, add more sugar.

These pancakes are the perfect way to start a day. Make some and share them with someone you love.

My love for pancakes //

When two people tell you that these are the best pancakes they have ever eaten, then you know that they are good. These pancakes are exactly what you want when you are craving a cinnamon bun but do not have the time to make them. These are sweet, cinnamony and fluffy. To make something delicious over the top, instead of maple syrup (which is also delicious), top them with cinnamon bun icing. Nothing short of amazing.
