Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 cup Carrots, finely grated
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)
- optional Maple syrup (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and grated fresh ginger until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Gently fold the grated carrots into the batter until evenly distributed.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil or butter.
Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a circle if needed.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as necessary between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup if desired.
