Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes
by Jessie Daye
Ingredients
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Method
- Stir milk and vinegar together in a bowl; set aside for 3-5 minutes.
- Mix flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Whisk egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract into milk mixture.
- Slowly pour milk mixture into flour mixture while whisking continuously until batter is just moistened and evenly mixed. It will be a little lumpy.
- Combine brown sugar, 1/4 cup melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Place a ziplock bag or piping bag upright in a tall glass. Pour cinnamon mixture into the bag and refrigerate until filling is thick, about 10 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour about 2/3 cup batter into the center of griddle. Cook pancake until bubbles start to appear, 2 to 3 minutes. Cut 1 corner off the center of the bag with filling. Swirl filling over pancake, leaving enough space around edges that filling doesn't touch the griddle. Place a popsicle stick at the base and submerge in pancake mix.
- Flip pancake and cook until other side is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle icing or syrup over pancake. Enjoy!
