A Cozy Kitchen makes the first taste of winter with these Gingerbread Pancakes.
Accompaniment: pure maple syrup
Whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl. Whisk together water, coffee, eggs, butter, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add flour mixture and whisk until just combined. Let stand 15 minutes (batter will thicken).
Brush a griddle or 12-inch non-stick skillet with oil and butter, heat over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.
Working in batches of 3 or 4, pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto hot griddle and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip pancakes with a spatula and cook until cooked through and edges are lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a platter and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Brush griddle with oil between batches.

Just made these on a whim. Was a little skeptical about the coffee, but they really hit the warm & sweet 9p.m. spot. And I am betting tomorrow morning they will hit the 9a.m. spot too. Thanks!
I’ve made these for Christmas morning for the last few years, and they’re always a hit. One of our favorite traditions. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Wow, what a treat. I made these this morning . Just what I was wanting for a gingerbread pancake. Definitely will make again. I will also take this recipe to work, so the cafe chef can make for us. Thanks for the recipe. BIG hit.

My boyfriend is notoriously finicky about me making basic dishes too “fancy;” so I made these one morning without telling him what they were first. HUGE success! The flavor is so subtle and the texture is so perfect that I didn’t even mind that I now had 17 zillion pancakes for only two people.

These were super yummy! I chopped up some apples and sprinkled them in and then served with sausage patties- EXCELLENT!
