Vegan Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Pancakes are a favorite here at the TCM household. I’ve always loved pancakes but being married to a pancake lover increased my own love two-fold. Pancakes are circles of deliciousness that you never want to end. When we went vegan, pancakes were one of the things that I was worried about.

We love pancakes… but we have standards too

I’ve tried a couple of different recipes none of which held up with the kids or the hubs–they were ok for me but I would take a green smoothie over them. Until now. As I was scouring through Pinterest for yet another pancake recipe to try, I came upon Vegan Yumminess. Her pictures of her pancakes looked divine and so I figured I would try them–except I didn’t have all the same ingredients and I don’t think pancakes should ever be made without vanilla extract.

So I used her recipe as a skeleton for my own and VOILA! My own recipe was born!

I’ve made a couple others since these but none have topped these right here. The hubs and the kids are literally begging for more after they’ve each devoured between 2-4 each–leaving me with my oh so delicious green smoothie. Yay. That was sarcasm.

P.S. Insider tip – not so great with using a griddle and spatula? I normally use the Babycakes Flip-Over Pancake Maker. Works like a charm for making perfect pancakes every time!
