Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

How to Make Creamy Rolled Pancakes with Caramel Sauce
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese filling over each pancake, then carefully roll them up from one end to the other. Place the rolled pancakes on a serving platter.
- Drizzle the homemade or store-bought caramel sauce generously over the rolled pancakes.
- Dust with additional powdered sugar for a beautiful finish and serve immediately.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the skillet is properly heated before adding the batter for even cooking.
- Adjust the thickness of the pancakes by adding more or less milk to the batter.
- For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the pancake batter.
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easy mixing.
Easy Variations
- Substitute the cream cheese filling with flavored yogurt for a lighter option.
- Add chocolate chips or berries to the pancake batter for extra flavor.
- Use different sauces like chocolate or fruit compote in place of caramel.
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit, such as strawberries or bananas, for a refreshing contrast.
- A dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert experience.
