  • Author: Julia
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

Small buttermilk pancakes flavored with unsulfured molasses, ginger, cinnamon and a little clove.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine salt
  • 2 eggs Large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups Buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup Unsulfured molasses
  • 2 tablespoons Light brown sugar, packed
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 teaspoons Neutral oil for griddle

Instructions

  1. Whisk 2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoons ginger, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon cloves and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  2. Whisk 2 eggs, 1 3/4 cups buttermilk, 1/4 cup unsulfured molasses, 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar and 3 tablespoons melted slightly cooled butter in another bowl.
  3. Fold wet into dry just until broad flour streaks disappear; small lumps can remain. Do not taste raw batter.
  4. Heat a griddle to medium and brush lightly with part of 2 teaspoons neutral oil. Pour 1/4-cup rounds. Cook about 2–3 minutes until bubbled with set-looking edges, flip and cook about 1–2 minutes until centers are fully set. Lower heat if darkening too fast.
  5. Repeat for about 12 working pancakes. Divide into 6 servings of two. Serve promptly; toppings are separate.
