My daughter's family enjoyed gingerbread pancakes at a restaurant and decided to serve them at home. The lemon syrup is a nice change from maple syrup. —Noreen Larson, Wainwright, Alberta

Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1-1/4 cups milk
1/4 cup molasses
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
LEMON SYRUP:
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Pinch ground nutmeg
1 cup cold water
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, molasses and oil. Add to the dry ingredients; beat just until blended.
Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancake; cook until the second side is golden brown.
For syrup, combine the sugar, cornstarch and nutmeg in a saucepan. Stir in water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in the butter, lemon juice and peel. Serve with pancakes. Yield: 10 pancakes (1-1/3 cups syrup).
