Spanish Churro Pancakes combine the fluffy texture of pancakes with the cinnamon-sugar flavor of classic churros. A delicious breakfast treat with a crispy sugar-coated finish.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter (plus more for greasing pan)
- 1/2 cup sugar (for coating)
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon (for coating)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
- In a shallow dish, mix the sugar and cinnamon for coating.
- While pancakes are still warm, brush lightly with melted butter and dip each side into the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra crispiness, lightly toast the pancakes after coating in sugar.
- Serve with chocolate sauce or dulce de leche for a richer experience.
- Best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in a toaster oven.
