Ingredients

Scale

Pancake Batter

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups plant-based milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)

Cinnamon Swirl

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Cream Cheese Frosting (plant-based)

  • 4 ounces plant-based cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cinnamon Swirl: In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon until well blended. This mixture will be used to create the signature sweet swirl inside each pancake.
  2. Mix the Pancake Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  3. Add the Cinnamon Swirl to Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a small amount of batter onto the pan for each pancake, then sprinkle about a teaspoon of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the batter. Add a little more batter on top to cover the cinnamon sugar, sealing it inside to create the gooey swirl.
  4. Cook Pancakes Until Golden: Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges begin to set, then carefully flip and cook the other side until golden brown. When cut, the cinnamon swirl should be visible inside the pancake.
  5. Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting (plant-based): In a bowl, beat the softened plant-based cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla extract (natural), and natural gelling agent until smooth and spreadable. Adjust the sweetness and thickness to taste.
  6. Assemble and Serve: Stack the warm pancakes on a plate and generously spread the cream cheese frosting on top. Allow the frosting to soften slightly as it melts deliciously into the pancakes before serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter and better texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes tender and fluffy.
  • Cook pancakes on medium heat to avoid burning and ensure golden color.
  • Apply cinnamon swirl mixture thinly to prevent leakage while maintaining flavor inside.
  • Warm the cream cheese frosting slightly for easier spreading and a melty finish.
