Ingredients
CINNAMON FILLING:
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, just melted (not boiling)
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
 
CREAM CHEESE GLAZE:
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2-ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
3/4 cup powdered sugar

(continued in the next column ↗️)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
 
PANCAKES:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
Directions
CINNAMON FILLING:
In a medium bowl, stir together the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Scoop the filling into a quart-sized heavy zip baggie and set it aside.
 
CREAM CHEESE GLAZE:
In a small pan, heat the butter over low heat until melted.
Turn off the heat and whisk in the cream cheese until it is almost smooth.
Sift the powdered sugar into the pan, stir and add in vanilla extract.
Set the pan aside while you make the pancakes.
 
PANCAKES:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Whisk in the milk, egg and oil, just until the batter is moistened (a few small lumps are fine).
Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium-heat and spray with nonstick spray.
Use an ice cream scoop (or 1/3 cup measuring cup) to add the batter to the pan.
Use the bottom of the scoop or cup to spread the batter into a circle (about 4-inches in diameter).
Reduce the heat to medium low.
Snip the corner of your baggie of cinnamon filling and squeeze the filling into the open corner.
When your pancake begins to form bubbles, add the filling.
Starting at the center of the pancake, squeeze the filling on top of the pancake batter in a swirl (just as you see in a regular cinnamon roll).
Cook the pancake 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bubbles begin popping on top of the pancake and it's golden brown on the bottom.
Slide a thin, wide metal spatula underneath the pancake and gently but quickly flip it over.
Cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until the other side is golden as well.
When you flip the pancake onto a plate, you will see that the cinnamon filling has created a crater-swirl of cinnamon.
Wipe out the pan with a paper towel, and repeat with the remaining pancake batter and cinnamon filling.
Re-warm the glaze briefly, if needed.
Serve pancakes topped with a drizzle of glaze.

💬 Uncle Dave says...
You might want to use a boxed pancake mix as the base for this recipe for a quick and easy option.
 
For the cinnamon filling: Before swirling, open up the baggie again and give it a good stir to re-incorporate any butter that may have separated from the sugar. You want the mixture to thicken a bit - it's best when it's similar to the squeezing texture of a tube of toothpaste, which will happen if you leave it at room temperature for several minutes. Don't try to use the filling for the pancake swirl unless it has thickened as it will be too runny to make a solid swirl.
 
Keep the heat low or your pancakes might cook up too quickly. Don't flip them until you see those bubbles starting to pop on top. Flip them with a wide spatula so you can grasp the whole thing without batter and filling dripping all over the place!
 
For a healthier version, you can use half whole-wheat flour and low fat cream cheese, or enjoy the pancakes without glaze.

🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 What's Up With The Images? Well, originally, we didn't have any pictures of the food at all. Intentionally! Because I find those sites with so many pictures that it takes forever to get through the directions to be annoying AF! I mean, seriously, if you need a picture to show you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking!
Then I decided to add pictures of the finished product when I remembered to take them, which isn't very often. There are a very few recipes which actually show some cooking steps, but not in the middle of the directions.
Anyway, recently I have discovered that AI can make credible images of the finished recipe. Is that right? Is it moral? Are robots taking over the world? Don't know; don't care. But I promise that unless you are a robot, your recipes won't turn out anything like the pictures.
42% About Searches When you do a search, you will see a colored circle on the left side of the recipe name with a number that represents that recipe's match percentage. It is not a perfect science. Certain words and punctuation throw things off. And even the rankings might be a bit skewed. But overall, it works 42%% of the time.
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
