Ingredients 

For the cinnamon roll pancakes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large egg

Cinnamon filling:

  • cup melted butter
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

For the glaze:

  • ¾ cup cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of milk
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, add the ingredients for the filling. Mix well until homogenized and transfer to a piping bag. Put it aside.
  • In a separate bowl, add flour, baking powder and salt. Mix then incorporate, with the milk, olive oil and egg.
  • In another bowl, add cream cheese, powdered sugar and milk, whisk until you get a creamy glaze.

Cooking the cinnamon pancakes:

  • On a frying pan, heated to medium heat and greased with oil, cook the pancakes for 1-2 minutes each. Use about ½ cup of mixture for each pancake.
  • Squeeze the filling from the piping bag over each pancake in the pan. Start from the middle and squeeze out a thin strip in the shape of a snail.
  • When small bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, turn the pancake to the other side.
  • Repeat the process with all the pancake batter.
  • To serve, decorate by drizzling over the cream cheese glaze.
