CRANBERRY, ORANGE AND PECAN PANCAKES



Cranberry, Orange and Pecan Pancakes image

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 large pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 17

One 12-ounce bag cranberries
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cinnamon stick
1 large orange, zested and juiced
3/4 cup pecan halves, such as Fisher Nuts, toasted and chopped
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 1/2 cups whole milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for cooking the pancakes
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups pecan halves, such as Fisher Nuts, toasted

Steps:

  • For the cranberry, orange and pecan sauce: Combine the cranberries, granulated sugar, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon stick, orange zest and juice and 1/2 cup water in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook until some cranberries burst but some still remain whole, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool completely, remove the cinnamon stick and stir in the pecans.
  • For the pancake batter: Mix the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, butter, vanilla and eggs in a separate bowl. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour the milk mixture into the well. Gently whisk until combined, but do not overmix, as it will make your pancakes chewy. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, chop 1 cup of the pecans and set the remaining 1/2 cup aside.
  • Heat a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet and coat with about 2 tablespoons butter. Add a scant 1/2 cup batter per pancake to your pan, leaving space between each. Sprinkle a handful of the chopped pecans in each. Cook until you see bubbles on the sides and in the center of the pancakes, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the pan to a flat surface to cool a few minutes. Cook the rest of the pancakes in butter in batches.
  • Hold a pancake flat and use a paring knife to make a 1/2-inch horizontal cut in the top. Slip the knife in horizontally and move it back and forth while turning the pancake to make a pocket. Repeat with all the pancakes. Spoon some sauce inside each pocket. (See Cook's Note.) Make stacks of stuffed pancakes on a serving platter. Or, stuff a few and serve with the remaining sauce on the side. Top with the reserved pecan halves for garnish.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can also be used, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Use a microplane zester or fine grater to get the zest from the orange. This will give the pancakes a more intense citrus flavor.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Conclusion:

These cranberry orange pancakes are a delicious and festive way to start your day. They're perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch, and they're also a great way to use up leftover cranberries after Thanksgiving or Christmas. With their bright citrus flavor and fluffy texture, these pancakes are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
