Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup milk
1 large egg
1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter
1 teaspoon amaretto extract
1 pint strawberries, sliced horizontally
1/4 cup blueberry cream cheese spread (such as Philadelphia®)
1 medium banana, sliced
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or to taste
10 bamboo skewers, or as needed

Steps:

Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Whisk milk, egg, butter, and amaretto extract together in a second bowl. Pour wet ingredients into the flour mixture, and mix until batter is well combined and smooth.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Drop teaspoonfuls of batter onto the hot skillet to form 1-inch diameter pancakes. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, flip, and continue cooking until golden brown, about 1 more minute. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with remaining batter.
Stack ingredients on a work surface as follows: pancake, banana, pancake spread with cream cheese, pancake, strawberry, and pancake. (Each skewer will use 4 pancakes.) Insert a skewer through the center of the stack and repeat to make remaining skewers.
Dust with confectioners sugar, and serve.
