Cream Cheese Glaze
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 3 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Pancakes
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
- Nonstick cooking spray
Glaze
Melt the butter in a pot over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, turn the heat down to low and whisk in the cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Remove from the heat and set aside until ready to use.
Pancakes
In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk and melted butter until incorporated. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. It is okay if the batter still has a few small lumps.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Coat lightly with the nonstick spray. Once the skillet is preheated, gently drop in the batter by ½ cup spoonfuls. Spread gently into a round shape with the back of a spoon.
Cook until the pancakes look slightly dry around the edges and bubbles start to form, 3 to 4 minutes. Gently flip to the other side and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown. Depending on the size of your pan, it will be necessary to cook these in batches of 2 to 3.
Pour the cream cheese glaze over the top to serve.
