Description

Decadent, soft, and fluffy vegan pancakes swirled with gooey cinnamon-sugar and topped with a luscious vegan cream cheese glaze—these pancakes combine the warmth of cinnamon rolls with the comfort of pancakes in a dairy-free delight.


Ingredients

1 cup oat milk (or any plant-based milk)

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp vegan butter, melted

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 cup vegan cream cheese

2 tbsp powdered sugar

1 tbsp plant-based milk

1/4 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix oat milk and apple cider vinegar to create vegan buttermilk. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add vanilla extract and the vegan buttermilk to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—do not overmix.
  4. In a small bowl, mix melted vegan butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Transfer to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. When bubbles form on the surface, swirl in the cinnamon mixture.
  7. Cook for 1–2 more minutes, then flip and cook until golden on the other side.
  8. To make the glaze, whisk vegan cream cheese, powdered sugar, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Drizzle the glaze over warm pancakes and serve immediately.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.

Use a zip-top bag for easy swirling if you don’t have a piping bag.

Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while finishing the batch.

Store leftover pancakes without glaze for best texture.

Freeze between parchment layers and reheat as needed.
