Steps:
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or a hand mixer, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until pale yellow, frothy and doubled in volume, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and cool to room temperature. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk the buttermilk into the dry ingredients and blend until it becomes a smooth paste. Add in the melted butter. Use a rubber spatula to fold the beaten eggs into the batter. Hold the batter at room temperature until ready to cook.
- Heat a 14-inch skillet or griddle pan to medium-high heat. Place 1 tablespoon of the butter on the skillet and ladle out 2 ounces of the batter. When the top of the pancake starts to bubble, use a large metal spatula to flip, and then cook on the other side until brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat for the remaining batter, about 6 pancakes total, adding butter to the griddle before each pancake. Stack three pancakes on each plate and serve with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, confectioners' sugar, some maple syrup and the Apple Cranberry Compote.
- In a medium saucepot set over medium heat, add the cranberries, granulated sugar, honey, salt, apples, cinnamon, lemon juice and zest, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, stir and continue cooking until the apples start to break down and the cranberries begin to pop, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and serve warm.

CRANBERRY, ORANGE AND PECAN PANCAKES
Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli
Time 1h10m
Yield 12 large pancakes
Number Of Ingredients 17
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.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan combine the syrup with the cranberries, simmer the mixture, covered for 5 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst, and keep the syrup warm, covered. In a bowl stir together the flour, the sugar, the baking soda, the salt, the cinnamon, and the walnuts.

- Preheat the oven to 200°F. Heat a griddle over moderate heat until it is hot enough to make drops of water scatter over its surface and brush it with the additional butter. Spoon 1/4-cup measures of the batter onto the griddle and cook the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden. Transfer the pancakes as they are cooked to a heatproof plate and keep them warm in the oven. Serve the pancakes with the syrup.

- 1. Put the cranberries in a small microwave safe bowl. Squeeze 1/4 cup juice from 1 orange into the bowl. Microwave until plump on HIGH, about 45 seconds. Set aside to cool. Grate 1/2 teaspoon of zest from one of the oranges, set aside.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. Fold in the plumped cranberries and any juice.

Cook until bubbles form on the top of each pancake and the bottoms brown, 4 minutes. Flip and cook (adjusting the heat if needed) until other sides is golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Keep pancakes warm.

Tips for Making Perfect Cranberry Pancakes:
- **Use fresh or frozen cranberries.** Fresh cranberries are ideal, but frozen cranberries work well too. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using. - **Don't overmix the batter.** Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - **Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking.** This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier pancakes. - **Cook the pancakes over medium heat.** Medium heat will help the pancakes cook evenly without burning. - **Flip the pancakes only once.** Flipping the pancakes too often will make them tough. Flip them only once, when bubbles begin to form around the edges. - **Serve the pancakes immediately.** Cranberry pancakes are best served hot off the griddle, with your favorite toppings.Conclusion:
Cranberry pancakes are a delicious and festive way to start your day. With their tart and tangy flavor, these pancakes are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast treat, give cranberry pancakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
