CINNAMON BUN PANCAKES WITH MAPLE CREAM CHEESE GLAZE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Set a baking rack on a baking sheet and put it in the oven.
- For the glaze: Put the cream cheese in a bowl. Heat the maple syrup in a small saucepan over low heat until it just begins to simmer, then pour over the cream cheese and whisk vigorously until smooth. Set aside and keep warm.
- For the cinnamon swirl: Melt the butter in a small saucepan until light golden brown. Whisk in the muscovado sugar and cinnamon; the sugar may clump and separate from the butter¿don't worry. Whisk in 1/4 cup water and bring to a simmer, whisking until the mixture smoothes out. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the cream and simmer another 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl to cool--the mixture will thicken as it cools--then transfer to a piping bag with a small tip.
- For the pancakes: Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, 3 tablespoons melted butter, eggs and vanilla. Add the wet mixture to the dry and whisk until just combined.
- Heat a large nonstick pan or cast-iron griddle over medium heat and brush with some melted butter. Ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and spread to make a 4-inch circle. Ladle in a few more pancakes, being careful not to crowd them.
- When the pancakes just begin to form bubbles on the surface, pipe in the cinnamon swirl filling: Starting at the center of the pancakes, squeeze the filling on top in a swirl (just as you see in a regular cinnamon bun). Continue cooking until larger bubbles begin to appear, the surfaces are somewhat dry and set, and the bottoms are light golden brown, about 2 minutes--adjust the heat as necessary so the bottoms don't brown before the tops set. Flip over and continue cooking until golden brown on the reverse side, about 1 minute longer.
- Transfer the pancakes to the oven to keep warm while you make the rest of the pancakes.
- To serve: Stack 3 pancakes on each plate, drizzle with some of the maple cream cheese glaze, and sprinkle with pecans.

SPICED MAPLE PANCAKES
I loved the texture and flavor of the original recipe, but I love cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in my recipes. Enjoy! Of course with any pancakes you can add chocolate chips, blueberries, etc. while cooking. It tastes great with dark chocolate chunks. Make sure you add them on top just before the bubbles all pop and before you flip them so the chocolate doesn't melt so much.

PANCAKES WITH BACON AND MAPLE SYRUP
Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network
Categories main-dish
Time 15m
Yield makes about 15 pancakes if cooked in a blini pan; or if not,
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Melt the butter and set aside to cool slightly while you get on with the rest of the batter and the bacon.
- In a large, wide-necked measuring cup, measure out the flour and add the baking powder, sugar and salt. Stir to combine.
- In another cup, measure the milk, beat in the eggs and then the slightly cooled butter, and pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking as you do so. Or just put everything in a blender and blitz.
- In the vegetable oil, fry the bacon (cut into half crosswise) or the pancetta strips until crisp, remove to paper towels and cover with more paper towels (not because I'm fat-phobic - as if! - but because this will help them keep their requisite crispness). Now, heat either a griddle or nonstick frying pan, smear with a small bit of butter and then start frying. I just pour small amounts straight from the cup (but you could use a 1/4-cup measure if you prefer) so that you have wiggly circumferenced disks. When you see bubbles erupting on the surface, turn the pancakes over and cook for a couple of minutes, if that, on the other side.
- Or use a blini pan and, as just described, turn when the bubbles break through to the uncooked surface. There is a Russian saying to the effect that the first pancake is always botched, so be prepared to sacrifice the initial offering to unceremonious stoveside gobbling.
- Pile the pancakes onto plate, wigwam with pieces of crispy bacon or pancetta and dribble or pour over, depending on greed and capacity, that clear, brown, woodily fragrant syrup.

Steps:
- Cook bacon in two batches in a large skillet over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels, then break into 3/4- to 1-inch pieces. Reserve drippings, and wipe out skillet.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together buttermilk, syrup, eggs, and butter. Add to flour mixture, and whisk until just combined (batter will have lumps).
- Heat 1 teaspoon drippings in skillet over medium-low heat. For each pancake, arrange some of the bacon pieces in a circle in skillet. Slowly pour 1/3 cup batter over bacon, starting in center and moving outward in a swirling motion to prevent bacon from shifting. Cook until small bubbles form on surface. Flip, and cook until golden brown. Transfer pancakes to a baking sheet, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining bacon and batter. Serve with syrup.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F
- Once you've prepared all of your vegetables, toss them together with the thyme and some salt and pepper. Put the veggies into a 2-inch deep roasting pan.
- Wash the bird inside and out and dry with a towel. Sprinkle it all over with salt and pepper. Rub a couple of teaspoons of olive oil all over the skin. Place it on top of the vegetables. Put it into the oven.
- Pour the stock and syrup into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce it by half: Use this mixture to baste the chicken generously and frequently.
- While the chicken is cooking, make the pancakes and the applesauce.

- Heat the Canola oil in a nonstick pan. When it starts to smoke a little, add one sixth of the mixture. Turn down the heat to medium. When the potatoes start to brown around the edges, flip them over and cook for almost 3 to 4 minutes more. Repeat until you are out of batter. You may hold these warm and put them in the oven just before you sit down for dinner

Reduce all of this together just a little and pass in a pitcher with the chicken. Carve the chicken into large pieces; cut the pancake into wedges. Top with warm applesauce. Serve all family style and enjoy.
- For a quicker dinner you may roast a whole cut up chicken, basting all pieces in the same manner. You will have to cut the vegetables into smaller pieces so that they are done when the chicken is
MAPLE PECAN PANCAKES
Pancakes have always been a classic breakfast dish. This pancake recipe gets a modern update with the addition of pecans and maple syrup which give the pancakes a boost of flavor, yet they're healthier and use whole-wheat and almond flours (which are recommended for many diets and health plans).

Steps:
- 1. In a medium size bowl, sift together both flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- 2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, maple syrup, buttermilk, canola oil, and vanilla just until well combined. Whisk in the flour mix, and then fold in the pecans, working the batter only enough to be sure ingredients are well blended.
- 3. Coat a griddle or large skillet with butter or oil and place over medium heat. When hot, drop 1/4 cup of batter into hot skillet. When edges appear dry and bubbles appear on pancakes, carefully flip them over and cook another 1 to 2 minutes or until browned.
- 4. Serve immediately, while still hot, topped with butter and drizzled with maple syrup, if desired.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of your pancakes.
- Measure your ingredients accurately. This will help ensure that your pancakes are the right consistency.
- Let your batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make your pancakes more tender.
- Cook your pancakes over medium heat. This will help prevent them from burning.
- Flip your pancakes only once. Flipping them too often will make them tough.
- Serve your pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Maple pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. By following these tips, you can make perfect pancakes every time. Whether you like them with butter and syrup, fruit, or whipped cream, maple pancakes are a surefire crowd-pleaser.
