In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and eggs. Whisk or use a hand blender until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Add almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using). Mix until the batter is smooth and thick. Let the batter rest for 1 minute to slightly thicken.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add butter or coconut oil. Swirl to coat the pan evenly.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the batter into the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly into a round shape. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Carefully flip each pancake with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with sugar-free syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent low-carb treat!
