Good morning, Snickerdoodles!
Do you like snickerdoodle cookies? They’re not my favorite, because they don’t have chocolate! But my mom adores snickerdoodles. So, for Mothers’ Day, I decided to get creative with her breakfast.
Apparently, the name “snickerdoodle” comes from a German word for “snail noodles” (a type of pastry). Yummy? 😕
Snickerdoodle Pancakes
(makes 6 super-fat pancakes)
- 1/2 cup spelt, all-purpose, or Bob’s gf flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- pinch uncut stevia OR 2 tbsp sugar (You can use less if you’re planning to top with syrup and therefore don’t want the actual pancakes to taste sweet. With this amount, the pancakes taste kind of like cookies, even with no toppings!)
- 1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp milk of choice, or more for thinner pancakes
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- tiny bit over 1/16 tsp salt
- Unless you like the texture of fat-free pancakes, I recommend adding 1 tbsp oil (for fat-free, use an extra tbsp milk of choice)

She loved them! After adding just a smidge of vegan butter and a tiny sprinkle of cinnamon sugar (more for appearance than taste), she proclaimed, “I feel like I’m eating snickerdoodle cookies for breakfast!”

these were so yummy 🙂 i split the recipe in half to eat as a snack and used whole wheat flour but still added 1 tsp cinnamon cause i love cinnamon 🙂
Just made these snickerdoodle pancakes. Kids like them! This is saying a lot since they normally won’t eat any pancakes except those crappy ones from a box mix. Way to go, Katie! Thank you!
Hi, there…the pancakes look great but…the method seems to be missing.
Do I assume the same method you use for the blueberry pancakes:
“Combine dry ingredients in a bowl, then add wet. Mix, but don’t overmix. Cook on an oiled (or sprayed) pan, on low-medium, flipping each pancake once.”
Please let me know.
Continued success with your blog. I would love to try these!
Yes 🙂
I just made these and they were SOOO GOOD. I used whole wheat flour and almond milk and they tasted AWESOME.
I made these pancakes this morning. They were good, but very thin and a little chewy. Do you have a tip to help make them a little more fluffy? Thanks!
These are supposed to be chewy like cookies. If you want fluffy, you should try the blueberry pie pancakes… so super fluffy ;).
Just made these, SO good. I do have to ask, though how much batter do you use for each pancake?
You are seriously the pancake genius! haha I am so excited to find this recipe…because I was talking to my husband and I asked him what a snickerdoodle was..I said dessert and he said a dog. I need to surprise him this week, to show him snickerdoodle is an awesome dessert 🙂 Thanks for the post!
can i use another type of flour instead of spelt?
Sorry, I haven’t tried so I really can’t predict the results of another flour other than what’s listed.
Katie, made these pancakes this am and they were soooo good. I could make the fast enough for the family. Thank you soooo much… I love your site. When is your cookbook coming out!!! Definitely buying one!!
Aw thank you, Kim! I just started writing it, so it’ll be awhile.
Do NOT try using Better Batter to make this gluten-free. FAIL. Stretchy, rubbery, nasty pancake…lol. I think my from-scratch mix will work great, but I am missing my finely ground brown rice flour. My store is out of it, and ordering it online incurs MAJOR shipping costs. So will make this with all of its gluten-y goodness once this weekend. 🙂 This really does taste like the cookie…
