CINNAMON STREUSEL PANCAKES



Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes image

For my mom, Du-pars was an iconic diner. The waitresses just looked SO AMERICAN. My mom felt like she was on Happy Days, waiting for Fonzie to walk in. Mom struggled with American food -- like, a Caesar Salad was exotic -- but with pancakes you can't go wrong. Du-pars' pancakes were her first comfort food in her new home. And we ended up making a ton of pancakes as a family.

Time 1h20m

Yield 10 to 12 pancakes, depending on size

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups buttermilk
3 large eggs, separated
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Vegetable oil, for the pan
Cinnamon Streusel, recipe follows
Melted clarified unsalted butter, for serving
Maple syrup, for serving
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
6 tablespoons (3 ounces) unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add the buttermilk and egg yolks to the flour mixture. Whisk together until everything is coated with the liquid.
  • Melt the butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Continue to cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is golden brown. Pour the butter into the batter and whisk everything together just until all ingredients are incorporated. Let the batter sit on the counter for 30 minutes or overnight in the fridge to thicken and let the buttermilk work its magic.
  • Before cooking, in a small bowl, whisk the egg whites until fluffy and stiff. Fold the egg whites into the pancake batter.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes. Heavily grease the skillet with oil. Use a measuring cup to ladle about 1/3 cup batter per pancake into the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the surface of the skillet. Sprinkle with some Cinnamon Streusel. Cook until bubbles form on the top of the pancakes and the bottoms are golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until the other sides are lightly browned. Serve hot with clarified butter and syrup.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
  • Using your fingers or a food processor, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Mix in the butter until crumbly. Spread the mixture on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Break the mixture apart and mix the streusel. Let cool.

PUMPKIN CINNAMON STREUSEL PANCAKES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Number Of Ingredients 22

CINNAMON STREUSEL:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into chunks (grating ice cold butter makes combining it a snap!)
PANCAKES:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice**
1 cup milk
1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
1 large egg
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
you can always make your own pumpkin pie spice blend with:
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Cinnamon streusel: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Mix together with your hands (or a fork), until you have a crumbly mixture. Set aside. Dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flours, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside. Wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, egg, pumpkin, canola oil, and vanilla extract. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and whisk until combined. Don't over mix! Heat a griddle or pan to medium low. Coat with cooking spray. Drop 1/3 cup of batter onto the heated griddle (or skillet). Add 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon streusel. Cook on the first side until bubbles begin to form, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip the pancake over and cover very generously with cinnamon streusel. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown. Continue this process to make the rest of the pancakes. Serve pancakes warm with a drizzle of pure maple syrup, and if desired, butter. Notes: The pancakes, themselves, are not overly sweet. However, the streusel can be sweet and very rich. If you want to cut back on the sweetness, I would suggest NOT adding the streusel on the first step-- rather, adding streusel once the pancake has been cooked and flipped on one side. I thought the whole wheat to white flour ratio was perfect. The texture was very slightly dense, but still somewhat tender. You could use all white flour, if you prefer, but I'd increase the brown sugar a little bit more.
