Gingerbread Pancakes

Absolutely add the coffee that I think Paul suggested,it really brings out the spices. I also used the amount of spices as many have said this recipe needs, mostly more ginger. Don't forget to have your ingredients at room temp so your butter doesn't cease!

In my endeavor to limit using only all purpose flour in pancakes, I used 1 cup ap flour, 3/4 cup wheat/white flour and 1/4 cup wheat germ. I used 3/4 cup buttermilk and 1/2 cup whole milk plus 1/4 cup coffee. More fresh ginger was a super flavor booster. After 40 years of making pancakes, my hubby said these are his favorite.

So delicious - subtle and fluffy - about half an inch high. I used almond milk instead of whole milk and added 1/4 to 1/3 cup extra (though not sure if I really needed to). I used 2 Trader Joe’s frozen ginger cubes (each is equivalent to 1 tsp) since that’s what I had. They include some lemon juice so I skipped the zest. Served with caramelized pears and maple syrup. Will definitely make again - would be nice for a seasonal brunch.

Molasses makes them burn more easily; use lower heat, otherwise excellent

These were DELICIOUS. I made a few changes: I ran out of fresh ginger, so I added 1/2 tsp extra to my dry ingredients. The batter was too thick, so I ended up adding 1 3/4 C Total milk. AND I added 1/4 TSP ground white pepper (I have that in a gingerbread cookie dough recipe, and it's super).

These are my new favorite pancakes! I added the coffee as recommended in the comments and about 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt added to the total amount of milk. Dare I say these are better than Kerby Lane?!

This is a great recipe! I heeded others’ advice and added 1/4 cooled light roast coffee. I didn’t have any lemon juice or fresh ginger and it was still great. Was a hit with the whole family.

Warm milk slightly or let it come to room temperature (eggs, too) so that the melted butter doesn't re-solidify when you mix them together.

To avoid wasting lemon zest, I always zest an entire lemon and freeze the extra. Whenever I eat an orange or juice a lemon or lime, I zest the fruit first and freeze the zest. I have three containers of zest in my freezer, ready to go: lemon, lime and orange.

These are delicious. We prefer to omit the fresh ginger and double the lemon zest. We serve with apple cider syrup, not maple. Great seasonal breakfast!

These were perfect as written. Don’t skimp on the maple syrup and even better with a dollop of creme fraiche or whole milk yogurt on the side with pecans.

Delicious. Used 3/4 cup Buttermilk, 1/2 cup Coconut Milk and added ~1/4 cup cold coffee to liquid. Let batter sit while griddle heated up. I don't love pancakes but these were outstanding. I didn't need syrup.

Yummy

These are my current favorite! I’ve had to make them gluten free- I use at least 1 c buckwheat flour and will either do all buckwheat, or mix it with gf flour and/or almond flour. Regardless of the combination, it works. Might not appeal to some but they are also great with some blueberries or chocolate chips thrown in - even better with both! Bon appétit!

Having made elisenlebkuchen last winter, I used that spice blend in place of those called for here. Also added that coffee, then some almond flour to rethicken it. A pancake worthy of making again.
