Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 8 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • ¾ cup 2% milk or any milk*
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Place flour, baking powder, and salt into a medium bowl. Mix to combine.
  • Then, add cream cheese, milk, butter, and sugar to a large bowl and use a hand mixer to combine all ingredients together until smooth.  
  • Crack the eggs into the wet ingredients and whisk until combined. 
  • Slowly add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix, making sure all ingredients are combined.
  • Next, heat a large skillet over low/medium heat. Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Using a 1/3 cup measuring cup, scoop pancake batter into the skillet. Let the pancake cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, flipping when bubbles start to form in the center of the pancake. Repeat until all pancake batter is gone.
  • Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Tips & Notes

*This batter is supposed to be thicker, but the longer you let it sit the more glutinous and thick it will become. If that happens add 1 tablespoon of additional milk at a time until the batter is scoopable.
