These fluffy eggnog pancakes offer a cozy, comforting breakfast with a subtle richness and warm spices, perfect for holiday mornings or any slow weekend.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups (300 ml) eggnog, preferably full-fat
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons (60 g) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for cooking
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs until frothy, then stir in eggnog, melted butter, vanilla extract, and brown sugar.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Add a tablespoon of eggnog if batter is too thick.
  4. Preheat skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with butter. Test temperature by sprinkling a few drops of water; if they sizzle, it’s ready.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup (60 ml) batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles appear and edges look set.
  6. Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil or a towel to keep warm while finishing the batch.
  8. Serve immediately with maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or nuts as desired.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter; a few lumps are fine to keep pancakes light. Use room temperature eggs and eggnog for better batter consistency. Preheat pan fully and cook on medium heat to avoid burning. Keep pancakes warm in a low oven if making a large batch. For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with almond or gluten-free flour blend. Vegan adaptations include plant-based egg replacer and dairy-free eggnog.
