    Ingredients

    Pancake Batter:

    • 2 cups preferred pancake batter with half of oil/butter replaced with pumpkin puree
    • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

    Or from scratch:

    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 tablespoon white sugar
    • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
    • 1 1/4 cups whole milk
    • 1 egg
    • 3 tablespoons butter melted – substitute 1/2 of the butter with 2 Tablespoons pumpkin puree)

    The Cinnamon Swirl:

    • 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
    • 1/4 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

    Cream Cheese Icing:

    • 4 Tablespoons butter room temperature
    • 2 Tablespoons cream cheese room temperature
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • + milk optionally, to thin out

    Instructions

    • Start out by making the cinnamon swirl mixture. Heat butter in a non stick pan, stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon and set aside to cool.
    • Heat your nonstick griddle, electric griddle or large skillet, add oil or nonstick spray if necessary.
    • Make your pancake batter by giving all of the pumpkin pancake batter ingredients a good stir with a wooden spoon in a large bowl.
    • Scoop a 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter onto the skillet.
    • As the pancake starts to cook over medium heat, spoon the cinnamon filling into a piping bag or zip baggie. It will be the same squeezing texture of toothpaste.
    • Once the pancake is almost fully cooked on the first snide, cut a small piece of the corner of the baggie.
    • Starting from the center of the pancake squeeze to add a cinnamon sugar swirl to the top of the pancake batter.
    • Allow the pretty cinnamon roll swirl to set for at least one minute before flipping and cooking the swirl side.
    • Repeat for all pancakes until golden brown.
    • Meanwhile, while the pancake cooks, whip together the cream cheese glaze. You can drizzle this over the pancakes with a spoon or with an additional piping bag – your choice.

    Notes

    Serve hot with maple syrup, cinnamon butter or whipped cream.
