Pancakes (Can also use a box)

Instructions
Cinnamon Filling
- Combine 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar, ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon in a medium-sized bowl. Scoop the cinnamon mixture into a Ziplock bag and set aside.
Glaze
- In a small pan melt 4 tablespoons unsalted butter over low heat.
- Whisk in 2 ounces cream cheese, ¾ cup powdered sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Take the glaze off of the heat and set aside until ready to use on pancakes.
Pancakes
- Combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk in 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, and 1 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil.
- Heat skillet to medium low. Once preheated, spray with non-stick spray. Add about ½ cup of the batter to the skillet. Wait until bubbles start to form. Snip the corner of the Ziplock bag with the cinnamon filling. Create a swirl pattern in the center of the pancake as pictured above. See notes. Be careful not to get it too close to the edge. With a wide metal spatula flip the pancake over and continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Wipe out the pan each time and repeat with the remaining batter. Warm the glaze if needed and drizzle over pancakes.

Before using the cinnamon filling mixture to swirl on top of the pancakes, open up the bag and re-stir to make sure that the butter is fully incorporated.
