Pinch of salt
¾ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 large egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

How to Make Cinnamon & Vanilla Pancakes
In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, vanilla, and melted butter/oil.
Gently fold wet ingredients into dry until just combined. Lumps are good—they make fluffy pancakes.
Heat a pan over medium heat and lightly grease.
Pour batter into small rounds (mini pancakes = extra cute).
Cook until bubbles form and edges look set, flip, then cook until golden.
Stack, top, and enjoy while warm.
Why Cinnamon + Vanilla Feels Like Magic

Vanilla brings softness and calm, turning this breakfast into something that feels gently nourishing.
Optional Kitchen Intention
While you whisk the batter, try this:
“I allow softness into my day. I nourish myself with ease.”
Even if your morning is chaotic, this is your little moment of calm.
