Gingerbread Pancakes

Step 1

Preheat an electric griddle to 375 degrees.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl whisk together water, molasses, and eggs then mix in butter.

Step 4

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).

Step 5

Butter griddle then immediately pour batter onto griddle about 1/3 cup at a time.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Serve warm with maple syrup.
