OMG, ladies (and gentlemen), let me share this absolutely incredible breakfast munchies recipe that has been driving my family and friends absolutely crazy! Trust me, once you try these Cinnamon Roll Pancake Bites, there’s no going back to regular breakfast – they’re that addictive! 🤤
Y’all, I stumbled upon this recipe during one of my random kitchen experiments (you know, those moments when you’re feeling extra creative), and holy moly, it turned out to be a total game-changer! These little bites of heaven combine everything we love about warm, gooey cinnamon rolls and fluffy pancakes into one perfect bite-sized treat.
Here’s what you’ll need (I know you’re dying to know! 😉):
For the pancake bites:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 3/4 cups milk
– 2 eggs
– 2 tablespoons melted butter
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the cinnamon swirl (this is where the magic happens!):
– 4 tablespoons melted butter
– 1/3 cup brown sugar
– 2 teaspoons cinnamon
For the cream cheese glaze (because why stop there?):
– 4 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar
– 2-3 tablespoons milk
– 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Now, let’s get cooking, bestie! 👩🍳
1. Mix your dry pancake ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in another. Combine them until just mixed – don’t overmix, or they’ll get tough (nobody likes tough pancakes, am I right?).
1. In a separate bowl, mix your cinnamon swirl ingredients until they’re well combined.

1. Here’s the fun part: Pour your pancake batter into a greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
1. Add a small dollop of the cinnamon mixture to each cup and use a toothpick to swirl it in. Get creative with those swirls, honey!
1. Bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes until they’re golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
1. While they’re baking, whisk together your glaze ingredients until smooth and creamy.
1. Once the bites are done, let them cool for about 5 minutes, then drizzle that heavenly glaze all over them. Pro tip: don’t be shy with the glaze – live your best life! 💁♀️
These little nuggets of joy are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or let’s be real – midnight snacking (I won’t judge!). They’re great for meal prep too, just store them in an airtight container and reheat when needed.
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve made these for brunches with my girlfriends, and they literally disappear within minutes! The best part? They look totally fancy but are actually super easy to make.
