Cake Batter Red Velvet Pancakes with Cream Cheese Syrup
Description
Cake Batter Red Velvet Pancakes with Cream Cheese Syrup start by mixing red velvet cake mix with all-purpose flour, milk (or water), and an egg to form a fluffy batter. The batter is cooked on a medium-heated skillet greased with butter or oil, poured in quarter-cup portions, and flipped once bubbles appear on the surface to ensure even cooking and a tender inside without burning. The medium to low heat setting helps maintain these textures.
The cream cheese syrup adds a rich topping made by beating room-temperature cream cheese with powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. It is drizzled over the pancakes for a sweet, tangy contrast reminiscent of traditional red velvet cake frosting. This pairing complements the fluffy pancakes with an indulgent sauce suitable for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
For the Pancakes
- 2 cups red velvet cake mix
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cup milk or water
- 1 egg
- 1 Tablespoon butter or oil, for greasing the pan
Cream Cheese Syrup
- 4 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
To make the Pancakes
- Heat skillet on medium heat while you prepare the batter.
- In a medium bowl whisk the egg and milk until well combined. Add the red velvet flour and all-purpose flour at the same time. Beat by hand for 2-3 minutes until the batter is fluffy.
- Brush the pan with oil or butter and pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet, spread out with a spoon if the batter is too thick. Cook until the small bubble (about 1 minute or less) begin to form of the pancake, flip and cook for no more then 1 minute. Make sure to leave the heat on medium/low so the pancakes don't burn. Keep a close eye on them while cooking.
- Cook pancakes one by one until all are finished.
To Make the Cream Cheese Syrup
