Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon (for spice blend)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar (for spice blend)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg (for spice blend)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (for spice blend)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- In another small bowl, mix the cinnamon spice blend: ground cinnamon, brown sugar, nutmeg, and ginger.
- Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Let the batter rest for a few minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid.
- Preheat a griddle or nonstick skillet to 350°F (177°C).
- Lightly grease the cooking surface and pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with cream cheese glaze, maple syrup, chopped nuts, or fresh berries.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
- Let the batter rest before cooking for best texture.
- Use parchment paper between pancakes when storing to avoid sticking.
- Freeze cooked pancakes for up to 2 months for easy breakfasts.
