Delicious Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes Recipe for Breakfast

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Batter

    In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together until combined.

    Make sure to sift the dry ingredients for a lighter pancake.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    Let the buttermilk sit at room temperature for best results.
  3. Mix the Ingredients

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

    Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
  4. Prepare the Cinnamon Swirl

    In a small bowl, mix together cinnamon and brown sugar to create the swirl mixture.

    Adjust the cinnamon amount to your taste preference.
  5. Cook the Pancakes

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and swirl in the cinnamon mixture.

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip to cook the other side.
