Cinnamon Pancakes From Scratch for a Delicious Healthy Breakfast

Cinnamon Pancakes
These cinnamon pancakes even taste good reheated in the microwave.

If you’re trying to increase your cinnamon intake for lowering cholesterol and improving your blood glucose levels, my cinnamon pancakes are a great and delicious way to benefit from all its antioxidants and antibacterial properties. These pancakes are light and fluffy with a fragrant spice touch for a twist to fortify a healthier pancake breakfast.

The thought of making pancakes from scratch may seem too much trouble compared to relying on some already prepared batter that you bought. However, my pancakes basically involve just mixing the ingredients with a whisk and frying in the same way as the pourable store-bought version. So why spend extra money when you make pancakes for far less at home? This is my motto.

I will not lie. Making pancakes does leave you with more dishes to wash than a bowl of cereal, but they are special treats from the usual daily breakfast fare. For that reason, pancakes such as these are normally reserved for a weekend breakfast at our house.

When you get a chance, I wish that you would give my recipe a taste test at your house because it is quite popular here. In fact, my family can’t decide if they prefer this particular recipe over my special buttermilk pancakes as their favorite.

Cinnamon Pancakes

2 cups of sifted flour
1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder, leveled
3 large eggs
1-1/4 cups of milk
1 tablespoon of vanilla
1/3 cup of canola oil

Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and in your mixing bowl. Add the eggs, canola oil, milk, and vanilla and beat everything together until well combined. (The batter will be slightly lumpy).

Lightly grease your skillet (about three tablespoons of canola oil to fry) and drop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake until the batter is gone. You can make these as small or as big as you desire.

ENJOY!

      Hi Gloria,

      I really never froze them to be honest. If I have left, I just stick in the refrigerator and reheat for about a minute in the microwave.
