A few weeks ago, my husband and I went out for breakfast at
our neighborhood diner. For the fall, they added gingerbread pancakes. My
husband took a bite of mine, even though he is not a real big fan of pancakes. Well
one bite turned into two, two turned to three, finally when I asked if he
wanted to swap plates, he gave me back my pancakes and mumbled I needed to find
that recipe. I laughed and asked if he wanted to finish them off.
I read several recipes for gingerbread pancakes, and the
common factor is the spices. So instead of making pancakes, I made waffles
because of course the husband enjoys them! They were a big hit and yesterday
when I reheated the left over waffle, my husband pouted. He wanted to take it
work for lunch and make all the guys drool over the smell… he is so mean
sometimes.
You can use any premade pancake or waffle mix. I use
Krusteaz brand for both waffles and pancakes. Make batter per the box instructions
(I used the portion to make 4 to 5 waffles,) add 1-tablespoon molasses, ¼-teaspoon
ground cinnamon, ¼-teaspoon ground ginger, and ¼-teaspoon ground nutmeg.
Serve with maple syrup and butter.
