Eggnog Pancakes

paula

I have never been much of a fan of drinking eggnog. However, I always liked my mom’s eggnog bread. I bought some eggnog to make her bread this year, but discovered that I did not have the right size of loaf pan to make it. Thus, I ended up with a quart of eggnog that I did not want to drink and that my eggnog loving husband could not drink because of his milk protein allergy. It was a shame because he could have had the eggnog if it I had cooked it in the bread. So, I decided to go ahead and cook it…in pancakes.

They were a big hit. My daughter said they tasted like “candy” and my husband said they were very “rich” after he finished his sixth.

Recipe: Eggnog Pancakes

Ingredients:

  1. 2 c. all-purpose flour
  2. 1 Tbsp. to a scant 1/4 c. of sugar (depending on eggnog’s sweetness)
  3. 4 tsp. baking powder
  4. 1/2 tsp. salt
  5. pinch of grated nutmeg
  6. 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  7. 2 eggs, slightly beaten
  8. 2 1/2 c. eggnog
  9. 2 tsp. vanilla butternut flavoring (or just vanilla extract)
  10. 2 Tbsp. canola oil

Instructions:

  1. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  2. Add eggs, eggnog, flavoring, and oil.
  3. Stir until well incorporated, but not totally smooth.
  4. Allow to rest as you preheat a griddle or skillet.
  5. Spray with nonstick cooking spray or oil.
  6. Pour 1/4 c. of batter onto medium heat (325 degrees) griddle or pan.
  7. Turn when batter appears partially set and has small bubbles over the surface.
  8. Serve warm with topping of your choice.

I really liked the vanilla butternut flavoring with the eggnog…I think they complimented one and other. I used Vanilla Butternut Flavoring.
