As I've said before, Mondays are great days around our house. It's really the only morning of the week my hubby & I have time to spend together. We usually start the day off by cooking breakfast. Normally I'm a yogurt & granola kind of girl, but I'll make an exception from time to time.
This pancake recipe was so good. Really sweet. Have a really tall glass of milk to wash down all the sugar.

{Cinnamon Roll Pancakes}
recipe compliments of Recipe Girl
Pancakes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 Tablespoon canola oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Cinnamon Filling:
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
Cream Cheese Glaze:
4 Tablespoons butter
2 ounces cream cheese
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Prepare pancake batter. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder & salt. Whisk in milk, oil & egg just until batter is moistened (a few small lumps are fine.)
In a medium bowl, mix butter, brown sugar & cinnamon. Scoop the filling into a small zip loc baggie & set aside. You don't want this to remain super-liquidy. It's best if it becomes a consistency similar to toothpaste.
In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, heat butter & cream cheese until melted. Whisk together until smooth; whisk in powdered sugar & vanilla extract. Set aside.
Heat large skillet over medium-low heat. Spray with nonstick spray. Scoop about 1/4 cup batter onto the skillet. Snip the corner of your baggie of filling & squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top of the pancake. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to baking sheet or platter & keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
When ready to serve, spoon warmed glaze onto the top of each pancake.
