Gingerbread Pancakes
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1/2 cup unsulphured molasses
- 2 large eggs
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted, plus more for griddle
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat an electric griddle to 375 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves for 20 seconds. Make a well in center of flour mixture and set aside.
- In a separate mixing bowl whisk together water, molasses, and eggs then mix in butter.
- While whisking, pour molasses mixture into well in flour mixture, and mix just until combined (batter should be slightly lumpy and it will also be pretty runny - if you’d like you can let it rest for about 3 minutes and it will thicken).
- Butter griddle then immediately pour batter onto griddle about 1/3 cup at a time.
- Cook until bottom is golden brown and bubbles start to appear on surface edges of pancakes then rotate and cook opposite side until golden brown.
- Serve warm with maple syrup.
