This was such an amazing breakfast recipe I just have to share. We ended up using our Heart Healthy Bisquick (to make it a LITTLE better for you) instead of making fresh pancake batter and it still tasted great. i would recommend making them very thin instead of fluffy so you can really enjoy the crunchy cinnamon taste. So h ere's another "I pinned it... I did it" recipe, enjoy! (Click here for the original recipe)
Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
Ingredients:
PANCAKES:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 Tablespoon canola oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten
CINNAMON FILLING:
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
CREAM CHEESE GLAZE:
4 Tablespoons butter
2 ounces cream cheese
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Prepare pancake batter: In a medium
bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk in milk, oil
and egg, just until batter is moistened (a few small lumps are fine).
2. In a medium bowl, mix butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Scoop
the filling into a small zip baggie and set aside. You don't want this
to remain super-liquidy. It's best if it becomes a consistency similar
to toothpaste.
3. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl- heat butter and cream cheese
until melted. Whisk together until smooth; whisk in powdered sugar and
vanilla extract; set aside.
4. Heat large skillet over medium-low heat. Spray with nonstick
spray. Scoop about 3/4 cup batter onto the skillet. Snip the corner of
your baggie of filling and squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top
of the pancake. When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip
carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1
to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter and keep in a
warm oven until ready to serve.
5. When ready to serve, spoon warmed glaze onto the top of each pancake.

Tips:
*Keep the heat low or your pancakes might cook up
too quickly. Don't flip them until you see those bubbles starting to
pop on top. Flip them with a wide spatula so you can grasp the whole
thing without batter and filling dripping all over the place!
*It's best if you pour the batter onto your skillet, wait a minute or so
and then swirl the cinnamon onto the batter. That'll give it a chance
to set a little before you add the swirl.
*If your baggie of filling begins to get too thick, just pop it in the
microwave for a few seconds to soften it up again. On that same note,
it shouldn't be too runny. The consistency of soft toothpaste is
perfect. If it's melty and runny, it will tend to run all over your
pancakes. Once you micro it, let it sit on the counter at room temp for
a while until it thickens slightly.
