Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1.25 cups Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Dark rum
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 unit Large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 as needed Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
- 1 optional Maple syrup (for serving)
- 1 optional Fresh fruit (for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, rum, vanilla extract, egg, and melted butter until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread gently into a circle if needed.
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings. Enjoy your Drunken Sailor Pancakes!
