1 teaspoon

Ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Milk

1 1/2 cups

Molasses

1/4 cup

to taste

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, molasses, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, but do not overmix. The batter should have some small lumps.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the skillet as needed.
7. Serve the gingerbread pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup. Enjoy!
