Instructions
1-Prepare the cinnamon filling: Mix ⅓ cup melted butter, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon in a bowl. Transfer to a piping bag or zip bag. Snip a small tip for control.
2-Make the pancake batter: In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Make a well and add 1 ¼ cups milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk gently until just combined. Lumps are okay!
3-Heat the pan: Grease a non-stick pan or griddle and heat to medium.
4-Pour batter: Scoop ⅓ to ½ cup batter per pancake, spreading slightly.
5-Add swirl: Starting from the middle, pipe the cinnamon mixture in a spiral on top of the batter. Don’t go to the edges.
6-Cook first side: Let cook about 2 minutes until edges set and bubbles form.
7-Flip and finish: Flip carefully and cook 1-2 more minutes until golden. Wipe pan clean between batches to prevent burning.
8-Make glaze: Microwave 2 ounces cream cheese and 4 tablespoons butter for 30 seconds until melted. Stir in 1 ¼ cups powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Drizzle over stacked pancakes.
