Cinnamon Bun Pancakes
It occurred to me this morning that one should be able to order a panful of warm cinnamon buns to be delivered to your door on a Saturday morning, much like you can order pizza on a Saturday night.
Business potential? I’d say so. Although it’s probably best that I can’t pick up the phone and have a warm batch of cinnamon buns delivered straight to my couch.
We didn’t have time to make the real thing from scratch, and since the 101st Calgary Stampede is now well underway, I have pancakes on the brain. Decades of free pancake breakfasts the first week of July every year will do that to the part of your psyche that dictates seasonal cravings. (If you’re not familiar with the Stampede, one of our biggest traditions during its 10 days is free Stampede breakfasts all over the city every morning. It’s a tradition that started at the 1923 Stampede, when chuckwagon driver Jack Morton invited passing citizens to join him for their first meal of the day. And so it began.
This weekend, cinnamon bun pancakes was a delicious compromise. Made with flours and canola oil from Tony and Penny at Highwood Crossing in Aldersyde (who are still recovering from the flood and not yet back in production).
These made the rounds of the interwebs a few years ago – I think my first sighting of them was over at Recipe Girl. You mix melted butter, sugar and cinnamon in a ziplock bag, snip off a corner and squeeze it out in a swirl onto your cooking pancake batter. At first, I forgot the cinnamon (see top photo) – and accidentally made caramel swirl pancakes. But it was easy to stir in some cinnamon once I realized the omission (see bottom photo).
I used my usual pancake formula – two of everything (flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, milk, oil) with some grainy flours in there to balance things out somewhat. My advice: keep the heat moderate – once flipped, that sticky sweet swirl can burn easily. You’ll get the hang of it – I did. It’s worth navigating the cooking time for those crunchy edges and craters of buttery sugar; these pancakes, not surprisingly, don’t need syrup, but are seriously fantastic drizzled while warm with a dribble of sweet cream cheese frosting. And a very good morning to you.
Cinnamon Bun Pancakes
AuthorJulieCombine the cinnamon swirl ingredients in a zip-lock baggie (snack size is perfect) and squish around to combine. Set aside while you make the batter. (Letting it sit for a bit will allow the butter to firm up somewhat, making it easier to squeeze. If it gets too cool and firm, place the sealed bag in a glass of warm water to soften it again.
In a medium bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese until smooth; beat in the icing sugar and vanilla along with enough milk or water to make a drippy drizzle.
To make the pancake batter: in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk in the milk, eggs and oil, just until combined.
Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil or spray it with nonstick spray. Ladle about 1/3-1/2 cup batter into the pan and let cook for a minute. Snip a small corner off the zip-lock bag of filling and squeeze it out in a swirl onto the pancake batter. Once the bubbles begin to break through around the edges and it's golden on the bottom, gently flip it with a thin spatula and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. Wipe the pan out with a paper towel (so that residual cinnamon goo doesn't burn) and carry on with the next pancake. Serve warm, drizzled with cream cheese drizzle.

Over 80 Canadian food bloggers are taking part in the Canadian Food Experience Project – every month they write about regional cuisine from a standpoint of ingredient, technique, influence or experience – check out the talented lineup of participants here.
These are easy and delicious too, work well for a crowd as there is no need to stand by the stove and flip each one. http://ranasfoodie.blogspot.ca/2012/11/cinnamon-roll-pancake-squares.html
Ohhh. Uh oh.
What a great idea!
Thanks for the mention- we still absolutely love these!
And a huge thanks for turning us on to them too! SUCH a brilliant idea – especially with the cream cheese frosting. I almost forgot – I added a bit of maple syrup to the cinnamon-sugar-butter goo too!
O.M.G….your cruelty knows no end. Here I sit wishing I had called in sick today, just to make these. (*sigh, probably for the best ) Happy Stampede-ing! P.S drove by your folks old place on the weekend, whatamess 🙁
OMG. OMG! This is amazing.
This is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant!
But I would expect nothing less from you or the city that seems totally unstoppable. Have a cinnamon bun pancake for me at the Stampede!!
Yum! Thanks for the reminder, I meant to try these when I first saw them a long time ago, but I’ve since forgotten about them. Must try!
Such a ingenius pancake variation. I hadn’t seen Recipe Girl’s post, so thanks for sharing your version!!
Wow.. these are unbelievable.. and as dangerous as take out cinnamon buns I think:) I can’t wait to try these on my family.. they’re going to be the new favorite!
Only you, Julie, would marry two prairie favourites into one stellar Stampede plate. Oh, my! Brilliant and I am sure this idea will go viral and by next year there will be cinnamon bun pancakes at all the mainstream breakfasts!
Certainly, I will be trying them. My favourite homemade pancake recipe is the one I got from my grade 7 foods teacher.
