The Best Cinnamon Pancakes (With Cinnamon Syrup)

Saffron is our love affair; a culinary crescendo that evokes a warmth of its own. But cooking is so much more than a single ingredient — it’s also about respect. It’s about respecting people from different cultures who dedicate their lives to creating something extraordinary with every dish they serve; family meals or five-star restaurants alike.

And that’s why we’re inviting everyone to join us – to share their recipes, explore new flavors and be part of something special. We know everyone has something delicious to offer!

For now, love yourself and enjoy this one ... 

Start any weekend or holiday morning the right way by whipping up some scrumptious and fluffy pancakes.

If you want to start your morning the right way, you probably want to start with some fluffy pancakes. If you want to do something special on a weekend morning or on a holiday when the whole family is together, these cinnamon pancakes are ideal. In fact, the prep time and cook time are both so short that you could quickly whip them up on any day of the week. Of course, by saving them for special occasions, you’ll be able to enjoy them a little more.

The ingredients are all items that you can find in the kitchen anyway, so there is no need to make a special trip to the store. There is also no cooking expertise needed. All you need to do is mix the ingredients, put the batter on the skillet, and know the right time to flip. In fact, these pancakes are not just great for a family breakfast, but they can also be a great way to introduce kids to the art of cooking; it’s that simple.

In this recipe, cinnamon is the operative word. If you play your cards right, the pancakes should resemble a cinnamon roll in terms of their flavor. At the same time, feel free to personalize the recipe with your own toppings. We recommend a little cinnamon syrup, but you can use any type of syrup or fruit you prefer.

Of course, if cinnamon isn’t your favorite spice but you’re in the mood for pancakes, there are plenty of alternatives. You could keep things simple with strawberry pancakes or blueberry pancakes. You could also try stepping out of your comfort zone a little with delicious cottage cheese pancakes.

Are Cinnamon Pancakes Healthy?

The ingredients in this recipe are designed to make these pancakes as healthy as possible. That’s why you find whole wheat flour, almond milk, and coconut sugar. But don’t sleep on the health benefits of cinnamon. Studies show that a regular dose of cinnamon can help to limit inflammation and cholesterol while also being diabetic-friendly. Also, don’t forget that you’re free to add various fruits, nuts, and other toppings that might have health benefits as well.

Keeping Things Simple

For a recipe like this, the last thing you want to do is over-think or over-do anything. Even if you love cinnamon more than anything, don’t add any extra because the recipe is already well-balanced. However, feel free to leave a little bit of the cinnamon swirl visible rather than mixing it into the batter. This will help make the pancakes look like a cinnamon roll and not just taste like one.

Another common mistake to avoid is over-mixing the batter. It’s okay to have a few lumps still there, so don’t worry about making the batter completely smooth. Some leftover lumps and bubbles in the batter will help to keep the pancakes fluffy when they cook, which is exactly what you want.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/4 cups almond milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (you can also use coconut oil)
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine

Whisk together the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients to form a smooth batter. Remember not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.

Cook

Pour the batter onto a preheated skillet and cook until bubbles form. Flip and cook until golden. Keep the pancakes warm in the oven if needed.

Serve

Stack the pancakes, add a drizzle of cinnamon syrup or your favorite healthy toppings, and enjoy a comforting yet nutritious breakfast.

Devour!

FAQs & Tips

Serving Suggestions

There are so many things that go well with pancakes, including cinnamon pancakes. If you want a little crunch, try adding some pecans or almonds to the recipe. Fruits like bananas or blueberries go well with these pancakes, as would an apple-cinnamon topping if you want to double down on the cinnamon flavor. If you want some spices that will complement the cinnamon, consider coriander, nutmeg, or even ginger.

If your cinnamon pancakes are part of a bigger breakfast, there are plenty of options for side dishes. Unless you’re in a house of vegetarians, you can’t go wrong with microwave bacon. You could also whip up some soft scrambled eggs at the same time as your pancakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference?

Organic food is free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. It can also be grown without irradiation or genetic modification. Organic farming practices promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.

Inorganic foods are produced using chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and sewage effluent. Radiation is used to treat irradiated food; biological engineering techniques are used to create genetically modified organisms (GMO).

The term "natural" is often used interchangeably with "organic." Natural does not necessarily have to mean organic. Natural products can also be labeled with synthetic ingredients.

Organic produce is usually more nutritious that conventional produce. This is because organic soil contains fewer toxic chemicals and pesticides. In addition, organic farmers do not use artificial fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides.

How can I tell if my produce has been certified organic?

If you want to make sure that you are buying organic produce, look for these three labels:

USDA Organic Certified – This certification is issued by USDA to ensure that the product is 100% organic.

Certified Naturally Grown – Produce that meets strict organic standards but has not received USDA certification.

Pastured/Free Range – Produced from animals that live outdoors and graze on grasses or herbs.

These labels signify that the product meets a specific set of criteria.

• No synthetic pesticides and fertilizers
• No genetically modified organisms
• The animal is never given antibiotics
• Animals never receive hormones
• No growth-promoting drugs
• No feed additives
• No artificial ingredients
• No irradiation
• There is no sewage sludge
• GMOs banned
• Antibiotics have never been administered
• No hormones ever given
• No growth-promoting drug
• No feed-additives
• No artificial ingredients
• No sewage sludge, if it's not a GMO
• No irradiation

What are some of the most popular organic products in your country?

Today, organic food is the fastest growing industry. There is still much to be done, even though we have come so far from our roots.

Organic products are the future. They are safer and more cost-effective for consumers.

However, they are also more expensive. We created the Organic Food Index. We wanted the ability to identify which foods are currently most popular and whether these trends have changed.

The results showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. The number of Americans shopping for organic food grew by nearly 50% between 2011 and 2012.

The USDA reported that organic production rose by 10% in the last year. Organic food now makes up 9% U.S. agriculture output.

Organic food is definitely on the rise, but it still seems expensive for consumers. The average retail price for organic food is almost twice that of conventional foods, according to the Organic Trade Association (OTA).

The organic food sector is growing faster than other segments of the food supply. Looking closely at the data, you'll see that organic food consumption has grown steadily since 2009.

According to OTA the volume of organic products sold at supermarkets grew by 14% in 2010 and 2011.

This increase reflects consumer demand for healthier foods, which explains why organic food sales are increasing across all age groups.

Younger generations are also leading the way in organic food choices. Millennials are twice more likely to purchase organic food than baby boomers. The 25% of organic food purchase made by younger adults below 35 are made up of young adults.

Is organic the same as pesticide-free?

Organic food is free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers. This means there is little or no exposure to chemicals such as fertilizers and herbicides.

Organic produce also contains more nutrients than conventionally produced foods because it contains no harmful additives.

The USDA National Organic Program (NOP), requires that farmers follow strict guidelines when growing organic crops.

These guidelines cover soil preparation, crop rotation and pest control. They also include water conservation and harvesting techniques.

In addition, organic farming methods promote healthy ecosystems, which benefit wildlife and natural habitats.

What is an Organic Food Producer?

Organic food producers make products that are organically grown. These foods include fruits, veggies, grains, and dairy goods.

Organic food production is only possible on farms where the crops are grown naturally. This includes soil preparation, pest controls, and crop rotation.

USDA (United States Department of Agriculture), has strict requirements for agricultural products to be certified organic.

These guidelines help consumers access healthy, safe and nutritious foods.

Organic food offers many health benefits. From lower levels of pesticide residues, heavy metal contamination, to higher nutrient contents and better flavour, organic foods are healthier.

USDA Certified Organic products must be labeled with the seal "USDA certified organic".

This certification means the product has met the standards of the National Organic Program.

Organic food not only makes us healthier but also helps to protect the environment.

Organic farming methods preserve natural resources, such as water or land. In addition, organic methods reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which cause climate change.

Organic agriculture uses fewer chemicals and reduces pollution runoff.

Because harmful gases such as ammonia or nitrates are less likely in the atmosphere, it also improves air quality.

There are many types to organic farming.

Conventional farming is the use of synthetic inputs like pesticides or fertilizers.

Regenerative farming includes compost, cover crops, as well as green manures that improve soil health. It also promotes biodiversity.

Agroecology promotes healthy relationships between humans and plants.

Permaculture promotes self sufficiency through the creation of systems that imitate nature.

Statistics

• Cosmetic brands such as Laurel and Rose Mira are 100 percent organic and have a wide array of skincare products. (en.wikipedia.org)
• According to a study performed by consumerreports.org, organic products, compared to non-organic products, ranged anywhere from 13 percent cheaper to 303 percent more expensive. (en.wikipedia.org)
• When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
• Brands participating in this challenge are committed to using 100 percent sustainable cotton by 2025.[5] (en.wikipedia.org)

How To

What happens to your Body When You Switch To Organic Products?

Organic products are produced without the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. They are derived from clean water and animals that have been free to roam. Organic means that they are free from chemicals and additives. This product was produced by nature and therefore contains no harmful substances.

The term "natural" refers how food is grown. It's usually used to describe foods not processed into their final form (such as fruits). Natural foods are often fresher because they're not subject to heat radiation, chemical preservatives or any other treatment. Some people think natural does not necessarily mean healthy. Experts believe there is no difference in organic and conventional food. Both types can be tested for safety and quality. Organic produce contains fewer pesticide and other pollutants than conventionally-grown produce.

Most grocery stores offer organic options. Check with your local market if you want organic meat, poultry, dairy, eggs, and seafood. Some companies only sell organic products. Others have separate sections. USDA Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified are some of the options.

If you are pregnant, or nursing, these products should not be eaten. Pesticides have been shown to harm infants and unborn babies.
