This morning do I crave flaky cinnamon rolls topped with decadent cream cheese icing? Or is it fluffy buttery pancakes with classic maple syrup?The answer to that question, of course, is both. This week’s edition of Foodie Friday combines two of my favorite breakfast items, cinnamon rolls and pancakes. Cinnamon Roll Pancakes. Prepare to be amazed!

Makes 8 pancakes.

Gluten Free Baking Mix

Cinnamon Filling:
1/2 cup butter, melted
Packed 3/4 cup  brown sugar
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon

Cream Cheese Glaze:
4 Tablespoons butter
2 ounces cream cheese
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:
Prepare Cinnamon Filling first: In a medium bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Scoop the filling into a small zip baggie and set aside. (You want this to rest and ‘set up’ while you’re preparing the other ingredients. It’s best if it gets a little thicker, you don’t want it too thin)

Prepare Pancake batter: See Recipe Above.

Prepare Cream Cheese glaze: In a medium glass or microwave-safe bowl, heat the butter and cream cheese until melted. Whisk together until smooth, then whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Scoop about 1/2 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet. Snip the corner of your cinnamon filling baggie and squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top of the pancake. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip carefully with a spatula and cook until lightly browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer pancake to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the rest of the pancakes.

When ready to serve, spoon warmed cream cheese glaze on top of each pancake. Enjoy!
