Cinnamon Bun Pancakes with Maple Butter Syrup (icing)

So..I have an obsession with breakfast food. I love it all.
Especially pork products (think ham, bacon and sausage).
I'm also a sucker for breakfast sweets...so pancakes, donuts, danish, cinnamon rolls...etc, are just up my alley.

When I saw this recipe, I almost fell over with excitement.
Pancakes and cinnamon rolls in one?!?!? Be still my heart.
We made them for dinner tonight (yes..the ever classic "breakfast for dinner", i.e. "i'm much to tired to cook anything of great effort...so you're getting THIS").

It was great.
My kids ate it right up...and then seconds.
Of course, how can you pass up a pancakes that tastes like a cinnamon roll...topped with maple syrup icing?
It's super easy too.

Enjoy!

Vanilla Glaze

You could use any powdered sugar glaze, but I love this one.
