Copycat Trader Joe’s Pancake Bread

 Everyone who has tasted this Copycat Trader Joe’s Pancake Bread can’t believe how close to the original it is. Bake one of these delicious breads and enjoy every bite!

 

 

The first time I had Trader Joe’s Pancake Bread, it was at a friends house who invited

my family for brunch.

 

It was so delicious with a moist yet dense cake and the most delicious cinnamon sugar, crunchy topping.

 

Being a huge Trader Joe’s fan, who regularly shops there, I knew right there this was one recipe I had to duplicate.

 

After two tries, this version was the winner.

 

My husband and son loved this version and said the same thing I did that it really tasted just like the one they had at my friends house that she bought from Trader Joe’s.

 

 

This recipe is simple with basic pantry ingredients.

 

As described on their label, it’s a twist between a stack of buttermilk pancakes baked into a sweet, moist loaf cake. It is! Really!

 

That’s what this tastes like. It’s now become our favorite loaf cake.

 

If you like the taste of cinnamon, you will surely love the cinnamon crumb topping.

 

To jazz things up a bit, serve while still warm and scoop some vanilla ice cream on top for a more decadent dessert. But, our favorite is slathered with butter for breakfast or brunch. Hey, anyway is the right way with this wonderful, sweet bread.

What’s In The Cinnamon Sugar Topping? 

There are only three ingredients that make a delicious topping

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the topping ingredients and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until combined.
  4. Using a handheld or stand mixer,(This is my favorite handheld mixer that I use all the time!) beat together the butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  5. Beat in eggs, One at a time until combined.
  6. Gradually add in the maple syrup, sour cream and vanilla and mix until combined.
  7. Now, gradually mix in dry ingredients until combined and smooth.
  8. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.
  9. Sprinkle topping ingredients on top of the batter.
  10. Bake for for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean or with dry crumbs.
