Cinnamon Toast Crunch Pancakes

(4 servings)

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon - divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal - crushed
  • 1 and 1/4 cups buttermilk
  • 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter - melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, 1 tsp cinnamon, and salt. Stir Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal into mixture.

In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla.

Slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until they’re just combined, but being careful not to over-mix.

Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium heat and pour about 1/4 C batter onto it. Cook pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side, until they’re nicely browned. Repeat with all batter.

Stir the remaining 1 tsp cinnamon into the maple syrup and serve syrup over a stack of pancakes. Crumble additional Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal over the top, if you desire.


Turn your favorite cereal into tasty pancakes. Try it with other cereals you like.
