Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup eggnog
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Maple syrup and whipped cream for serving
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the eggnog, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Cook Pancakes: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
