Ingredients

1 C all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking powder reduce to 1 teaspoon if you prefer a flatter pancake
2 tablespoon granulated sugar
⅛ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg plus extra for topping
1 C eggnog or whole milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoon melted unsalted butter or neutral vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Make the batter:

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Add in eggnog, egg, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract.
Stir gently until just combined, don't over mix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Cook the pancakes:

Heat a lightly greased nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Scoop about ¼ C batter per pancake.
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges look set, 1-2 minutes.
Flip and cook another minute until golden.

Serve:

Stack the pancakes while warm and dust the tops with a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg.

Notes

For thinner pancakes, use a little more eggnog; for thicker pancakes, use a little less eggnog; adjust accordingly.

If your eggnog is too thick, sub in a little whole milk to thin it out.
