Cinnamon Bun Pancakes

June 27, 2011

I saw a recipe for this on Pinterest the other day and had all of the ingredients, so while my family was down this weekend I tweeked it a bit and mixed up a batch for the group.

Ignore the lumpy syrup, after I didn't sift it my Mother suggested I sift it ha! I was on a 5 minute crunch time to make it to Conditioning so it is a miracle these worked out at all.

Cinnamon Bun Pancakes
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tbsp ground flax seed
3 Tablespoons Splenda
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup almond milk
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 cup melted butter
1 Tablespoon vanilla



Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately. Slowly mix wet ingredients into the dry. Pour about 1/4c of mix into a hot pan, flipping when sides are browned. Makes roughly 15 pancakes. 


Syrup:
2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 almond milk


Mix ingredients and serve with pancakes. 

Like I said I found the original recipe on Pinterest via bakedbree.com, this is my healthy-fied version. If you can't cut the sugar and butter...at least make it whole wheat. It really ups the fiber, and your body will appreciate it.
