Breakfast for a Lazy Saturday!



What should I fix for breakfast on a lazy Saturday morning?? Why not two of my favorite breakfast foods: Cinnamon Rolls and Pancakes!

Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Pancakes Mix:
2 cups of pancake mix, make as package directs

Cinnamon Swirl:
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 Tbsp cinnamon

Cream Cheese Icing:
4 Tbsp butter, melted
2-4 oz. cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Prepare pancake batter as directed on package.

In separate bowl, mix together butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Put into a zip lock bag. This should look a lot like frosting (thick).

In another bowl, heat butter and cream cheese in microwave until melted. Mix together until smooth.  Then mix in powdered sugar and vanilla extract.

Pre-heat skillet over medium heat. Spray with butter flavored nonstick spray. Make a medium size pancake in the center of your skillet. Cut the corner of your zip lock bag and squeeze a spiral of the filling onto the top of the pancake. When the pancake starts to bubble, flip carefully.  Finish cooking pancake until both sides are golden brown.

Serve with drizzled Cream Cheese Icing.
