Gingerbread Pancakes

Prep Time: 10mins

Cook Time: 20mins

Total Time: 30mins

Ingredients 

  • 2 Cups of pancake mix
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1tsp ground ginger, divided
  • 1-1/4 cups water (or as directed on the pancake mix package)
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream 
  • 2 tbsp confectioner sugar
  • Gingerbread cookies, crushed, for serving 
  • Maples syrup, for serving

Directions

  1. Combine pancake mix, cinnamon, nutmeg, and 1/2 tsp of ginger in a large bowl. 
  2. Add water, molasses, and vanilla and whisk until combined. 
  3. Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and slightly grease with butter or oil. 
  4. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until edges are browned and pancakes are cooked through. 
  5. Meanwhile, combine heavy cream, confectioner sugar, and remaining ginger in a medium bowl. Beat using an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. 
  6. Stack pancakes onto serving plates and dollop generously with whipped cream. Garnish with gingerbread cookies and a drizzle of maple syrup. Serve and enjoy.
