- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- For the cinnamon swirl:
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- For the frosting drizzle:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and mix with the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture until it forms a paste.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
- Immediately dollop spoonfuls of the cinnamon-sugar mixture onto the pancake batter. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the cinnamon into the batter.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the pancakes cook, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until you reach a drizzling consistency for the frosting.
- Serve pancakes warm, drizzled with the frosting.
Notes
- For extra flavor, toast the cinnamon and sugar mixture lightly before adding it to the pancakes.
- Adjust the milk in the frosting to achieve your desired thickness.
- Serve immediately for the best texture.
