Time 30m

Yield 8-10 Pancakes, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup oat bran
1/2 cup white whole wheat flour or 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs or 1/2 cup egg substitute
7 tablespoons skim milk
3 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
4 teaspoons brown sugar
2 -3 tablespoons chopped pecans (optional)
3 -4 tablespoons chopped apples or 2 -3 tablespoons cranberries
1 1/4 teaspoons ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon orange rind

Steps:

  • Mix together dry ingredients. (You can do this the night before).
  • In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients and brown sugar then add to the dry, mixing until just moist, folding in pecans and cranberries.
  • If using cranberries, prepare as follows: Thaw if frozen. Cut in halves and place in bowl with sprinkle of white sugar. Toss in sugar then fold into pancake batter with pecans. (This cuts the tartness).
  • Let stand for five minutes **Don't skip this step.
  • Heat GREASED griddle to 350 while the pancake batter is standing.
  • Pour pancake batter onto griddle, and lightly spread outwards with a spatchula. Due to the molasses, this batter can thicken quite a bit.
  • Flip when bubbles form on top of pancake and edges are dry. Enjoy with maple syrup, caramel sauce, pear sauce, or applesauce.

These pancakes are a bit more time-consuming to make than traditional pancakes, but they're worth the extra effort. They're so fluffy and flavorful, and the gingerbread flavor is amazing.

I'm not a big fan of gingerbread, but I still enjoyed these pancakes. They're not too sweet or spicy, and the gingerbread flavor is subtle. I think even people who don't like gingerbread would enjoy these pancakes.

These pancakes are a great way to use up leftover gingerbread spices. I had some leftover from making gingerbread cookies and I didn't want to waste them. These pancakes were the perfect solution!
