I decided to surprise our family with a little unexpected treat and whip up a batch of these Cinnamon Bun Pancakes from How Does She? that we featured in our weekly notebook. Not known to be much of a pancake flipper, I wowed the family with this special surprise and even had pancakes that were intact this time! Another unexpected treat was the cinnamon maple frosting drizzle in lieu of the traditional syrup I usually serve.
Only quiet smacks and a few “ohhh’s” and “ahhh’s” were heard at my kitchen table. Swift and sticky hugs were given to me and proclamations of my awesomeness may have been made by my children.
Belly clutching and groaning may have concluded the dinner for the adults, but they were satisfying groans and an evening spent of television watching. There may have possibly been more proclamations of awesomeness as we made vows to hit the gym and treadmill the next day.
Not enough pancake magic for you? Be sure to try our Light & Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes for another dinner worthy of many more sticky hugs and heartfelt proclamations!
You’re killing me here. KILLING ME. I am going to HAVE to try those. I made pumpkin pancakes last weekend from Everyday Mommy. Perhaps I will compare them to the Light & Fluffy version you link to. But first… cinnamon bun pancakes are sure to grace our table! Maybe even this morning.

Oh, I would love to hear what you think about the Pumpkin Pancakes. I love those- it was a recipe that I adapted from the infamous Martha Stewart
Hope you guys enjoy your dinner tonight!!

I made these on Saturday and doubled the recipe as she suggested. I had enough leftover to go in my freezer to enjoy at another time. They were easy and delicious!

Yum! We had the same brilliant idea, Ali! A double batch is so yummy for breakfast on busy school nights. So glad you liked them!

I had my husband make these. Due to the way my spice containers are, he messed up some math and only used 3/4 tsp cinnamon rather than 1 Tbsp. They were good, but not where near as good as you make them sound. Maybe I’ll make him try it again.

Oh, the cinnamon makes all the difference. Maybe you can try them again with more cinnamon- I think you would like them even more!

I made these for my husbands birthday. They were really good but didn’t look nearly as pretty as yours.
