…took a few tries to get just right. However, these ginger pancakes by RR are spicy, sweet, and downright delicious! Ginger is truly one of the best spices you can cook with–it packs a nutritious punch with a boatload of antioxidants. These pancakes are delicious anytime, but are a real treat during allergy season–the ginger clears up a sore throat in no time!
For these spicy pancakes you need:
- 2 tablespoons dried ground ginger, tightly packed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- maple syrup, for serving
Whisk together the flour, salt, ginger, soda, and cornmeal. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, honey, egg, and milk. Add the liquids to the dry ingredients, stirring just until everything is combined.
Heat a greased skillet over medium heat and cook about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until the cake bubbles all over, then flip to crisp and brown the other side for a few minutes. Drizzle a bit of maple syrup on your stack and that’s it!
Make sure you use enough batter for each pancake; if you don’t, they have a consistency not unlike a crepe. Still delicious, but we wanted a pancake! This is a great recipe to break the monotony of plain old pancakes (which there is nothing wrong with, I might add!). They have a bit of heat and nice, crispy edges. Try them out, especially if allergies are not allowing you to enjoy the start of summer!
