If you're still working from home, chances are your commute-free mornings are a bit more laid-back, with plenty of time to brew coffee and make breakfast. The Cheesecake Factory wants to make sure you're getting your daily sugar intake while you're at it (or something like that), which is why they're sharing the recipe for their famously indulgent cinnamon roll pancakes.
These swirled flapjacks combine two breakfast greats with delicious results. The best part? You probably already have most of the ingredients hiding in your cupboards. Take a look at the recipe for the Cheesecake Factory's cinnamon roll pancakes and give them a whirl—er, swirl.
Here's what you’ll need:
Pancakes
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus 2 teaspoons
- 1 cup cinnamon swirl
- ½ cup vanilla icing
- Powdered sugar (optional)
Cinnamon swirl
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 5 ounces brown sugar
- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cream
Here's how to make it:
1. To make the cinnamon swirl, melt butter in a small pot. Add brown sugar and cinnamon and cook until sugar melts. Add cream and whisk to incorporate.
2. Place the flour, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Stir all of the ingredients together until evenly combined. Set aside.
3. Pour the buttermilk into another mixing bowl. Add the eggs, vanilla and oil into the bowl.
4. Add the flour mix into the bowl with the buttermilk. Continue to fold the ingredients together until evenly combined with a few small lumps remaining in the batter. Do not over mix the batter.
5. Heat 1/4 teaspoon of vegetable oil on a griddle or in a large non-stick pan. Using a 4-ounce ladle, pour the batter onto the griddle or into the non-stick pan, forming one pancake that is 6 inches in diameter.
6. Drizzle equal amounts of cinnamon swirl onto each pancake in a spiral motion.
7. Cook the pancakes for approximately 2.5 minutes or until the edges begin to dry and puff up with little air bubbles will start appearing over the top surface of the pancakes.
8. Flip each pancake over and continue to cook for another 1.5 minutes or until done.
9. Place two pancakes onto each serving plate. Drizzle the vanilla icing and sprinkle the powdered sugar over each stack of pancakes.
