287 Calorie Cinnamon Roll Pancakes
Soft, fluffy and super indulgent! These low calorie cinnamon roll pancakes are oozing with delicious cinnamon goodness and topped with a vanilla cream cheese frosting!
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp stevia*
- 25 ml unsweetened almond milk*
- ½ tsp vanilla extract or bean paste
- 50 g plain or all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
Cinnamon-sugar drizzle:
- 1 tbsp 0 calorie brown sugar*
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp unsweetened almond milk*
Cream cheese frosting:
- 30 g Philadelphia lightest or 3% fat cream cheese*
- 1 tbsp 0 calorie powdered sweetener*
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and stevia until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the milk and vanilla and whisk to combine. Add the flour and baking powder and whisk until smooth. Let the batter rest for a few minutes while you prep the cinnamon sugar and frosting.
- In a small bowl, make the cinnamon sugar drizzle by mixing together the milk, 0 calorie brown sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined. Set aside. Transfer to a piping bag when making the pancakes.
- In another small bowl, whisk together the cream cheese and 0 calorie powdered sweetener until smooth. Set aside.
- I recommend using a non-stick pan so you don’t need to use any oil/butter for the pan. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto a hot, non-stick pan, swirl in the cinnamon-sugar drizzle and cook over medium-low heat until bubbles form on the surface , about 1-2 minutes, then flip over. Cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes. Repeat this until all of the batter and cinnamon sugar is used up.
- Top the pancakes with the cream cheese frosting and enjoy!

Notes
Substitutions:
*Stevia - can be subbed for any 0 calorie granulated sweetener, the stevia I used is a 1:2 ratio of stevia to sugar so bear that in mind. *Unsweetened almond milk - can be subbed for any milk of your choice but the calories will increase slightly depending on which you use. *0 calorie brown sugar - can be subbed for any 0 calorie granulated sweetener, the sweetener I used is a 1:1 ratio of sweetener to sugar. *Philadelphia lightest - can be subbed for light or low-fat cream cheese with only a small increase in calories. *0 calorie powdered sweetener - can be subbed for regular powdered sugar for a slight increase in calories.Nutrition
