Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes, what a fantastic idea! Little S saw this on TikTok and I had to make my own version - you may think it's a bit of a gimmick but the cinnamon flavour really comes through and they really do taste just like a cinnamon bun, in pancake form!

I've made the batter especially thick so get get a lovely fluffy pancake that holds the swirl - you want to have the look of a cinnamon bun after all. Plus the light fluffy texture really adds to the fun nature of these pancakes.

This is not a sponsored post but the Coconut Merchant have sent me some of their products to use in my recipes. Having only recently come across this brand i'm really keen to champion them as their products are free-from as well as ethically sourced, and that's rare with coconut. In this recipe i've used some of the amazing Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder which gives an incredible warm spicy flavour.

These might just be our choice this Pancake day. What kind of pancake are you going to choose?

Cinnamon Swirl Egg-free Pancakes

dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, soya-free, sesame-free, vegetarian and vegan

120 g plain flour (1 cup)
2 tsp baking powder
30 g caster sugar (2 tbsp)
pinch of salt
2 tbsp sunflower oil
175 ml dairy-free milk
1 tsp soft brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Sift the flour and mix in the other dry ingredients
Add oil and dairy-free milk and whisk until smooth
Remove 2 tbsp of the batter and place into a small bowl, mix in the brown sugar and cinnamon. If possible place this in a piping bag.
In a hot pan, wiped with oil, fry ladlefuls of the batter, adding a swirl of the cinnamon batter to the uncooked side whilst the first side is cooking. This is easiest with a piping bag or you could use a spoon to drizzle it on.
Fry on both sides in a hot pan wiped with a smear of sunflower oil
Eat hot topped with honey, maple syrup or perhaps a water icing.
