Healthy Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal Pancakes I Easy Breakfast Recipes

Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled Oats (old‑fashioned rolled oats)
• 1 cup Milk (any dairy or plant‑based milk)
• 1 large Egg (room temperature)
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder (double‑acting)
• 1 pinch Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar (packed)
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter (melted (optional for extra richness))
• 4 ounces Cream Cheese (softened)
• 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar
• 1 tablespoon Strong Brewed Coffee (cooled slightly)

Instructions

1. Blend Oatmeal Batter

   Add rolled oats, milk, egg, baking powder, pinch of salt, and vanilla extract to the blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and resembles a traditional pancake batter.

2. Prepare Cinnamon‑Sugar Mixture

3. Heat Skillet

   Place the non‑stick skillet over medium heat (about 350°F) and lightly coat with a thin layer of butter or oil.

   Time: PT1M

   Temperature: 350°F

4. Cook Pancakes and Swirl Cinnamon Sugar

   Pour ¼‑cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. As bubbles form on the surface (about 30 seconds), spoon a small dollop of the cinnamon‑sugar mixture onto the center and gently swirl with a skewer or the back of a spoon. Cook until the edges set (≈1½ minutes), then flip and cook another 1‑2 minutes until golden.

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: 350°F

5. Make Coffee Cream Cheese Icing

   In the small saucepan, whisk together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and the tablespoon of coffee until smooth. Warm over low heat just until the icing becomes pourable, about 1‑2 minutes.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: low

6. Serve

   Stack the warm pancakes on a plate, drizzle with the coffee cream cheese icing, and enjoy immediately. Optional: add a drizzle of maple syrup or fresh berries.

   Time: PT1M
