Fluffy Maple Cinnamon Pancakes are cozy, soft, and thick pancakes infused with warm cinnamon spice and sweet maple syrup. They’re perfect for breakfast or brunch and come together quickly with pantry staples.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups whole milk (or preferred milk)
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Butter or oil, for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined; lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles form on top and the edges begin to set.
  6. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Serve warm with maple syrup, butter, or desired toppings.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter—lumpy is good for fluffy pancakes.
  • Keep pancakes warm in a 200°F (90°C) oven while finishing the batch.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips, blueberries, or nuts work well in the batter.
  • Swap milk for buttermilk for extra fluff and tang.
  • To make dairy-free, use plant-based milk and coconut oil or vegan butter.
