Gingerbread Pancakes

Servings: 18 pancakes

Ingredients

Dry mix:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Wet mix:

  • 1 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons unsulfured molasses
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • Butter for griddle

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, mix together flours, dark brown sugar, baking powder, salt and spices: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves.
  • In a measuring cup (or small bowl), measure out the milk. Add the eggs, molasses and melted butter; beat until combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter should have some small to medium lumps.
  • Heat up your griddle (or cast iron skillet), over medium heat, and brush with 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Scoop the batter, using a 1/4 cup measure (or tablespoon measure), onto the warm skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, and then flip. Turn heat down to medium-low and cook on opposite side for about 1 minute, or until golden brown.
  • Transfer cooked pancakes to a baking sheet and place in 200 degree preheated oven to keep warm. Proceed with the rest of the batter until you're done. Serve with a dusting of powdered sugar and warm maple syrup.
