Snickerdoodle Pancakes

 

I like snickerdoodle cookies, but have yet to successfully have one turn out. They all come out flat as a pancake, pun intended. However, I have successfully made many other snickerdoodle flavored things like these delicious pancakes. Actually, these pancakes probably have more volume than the cookies I have made. 

Essentially, these are cinnamon pancakes coated in cinnamon sugar and topped with a delicious vanilla sauce. Do not skip the vanilla sauce, it is so delicious and complements to pancakes very well.

Snickerdoodle Pancakes

Ingredients:

Pancakes

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• butter

Topping

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Vanilla Sauce

• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch 
• 1 1/4 cups half and half
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Snickerdoodle Pancakes

1. On a plate, large enough to fit a pancake, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, buttermilk, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla, cinnamon and egg. Mix just until well combined.
3. Melt some butter on a skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Pour on 1/4 cup of batter and spread into a circle. Cook until the edges start to brown and bubble form, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancake over and cook on the other side until golden brown on the bottom. Repeat until all of the batter has been used.
4. While the pancakes are cooking, working with on pancake at a time brush both sides with butter and place into the plate with cinnamon sugar. Flip the pancake over to coat both sides. Repeat with the remaining pancakes right before serving.

Vanilla Sauce

1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch. Slowly pour in the half and half while whisking. Add in the butter and vanilla.
2. Turn the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a boil and then cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. Remove from the heat and serve warm over the pancakes.
