Eggnog Pancakes with Raspberry Maple Syrup

 

 

 

Happy Friday everyone!

It's Friday, and if you all don't know yet, I love making special breakfast on Fridays. I don't really get to eat breakfast with hubby all week long and Friday's is usually the day he has time, So I try to make it special.
 

Decided to make some Eggnog Pancakes today, I wish this is not seasonal! I can have this all year long!

 

Been using this recipe of pancakes all the time, the only difference I did was the milk, I looked everywhere to find a really good fruit topping, I've been seeing a recipe for Cranberry topping. But I was kind of worried that I won't like it so I used Raspberry instead. I loved it! Maybe next time, I'll give Cranberry a try.

 

 

 



Ingredients:

(Makes 8 servings)

• 1  1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 3 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 egg
• 1 3/4 cup Eggnog
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoon of butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon sugar

Directions:



• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
• Make a well in the center and pour in the eggnog, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat.
• Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake.
• Brown both sides and serve hot.

 

 

 

 

Raspberry Maple Syrup

• I added 2 cup of fresh raspberry (you can also use frozen) to a pan along with 1 cup of maple syrup and 2 tbsp. of butter.
• I simmered the syrup until the raspberries began to burst a bit and softened and the syrup was warmed through. Once the syrup is thickened and blended together, I poured the sauce over each stack of  pancakes.

 

Garnish with some syrup if desired!

 

 

 

Cheesy Spam and Eggs

 

I always make these Scrambled eggs every time I make pancakes, It's a perfect combination with pancakes.

 

 

Ingredients:

• 1 can Spam, chopped in cube
• 4 Eggs, Beaten
• 3/4 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
• salt and pepper

 

Directions:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and season with salt and pepper.
• Melt the butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
• Cook the Spam and cook, stirring until a little brown. Add the egg and cook, stirring until loosely set. about 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs and stir to combine. Continue to cook, stirring for 2 to 4 minutes depending on desired firmness of the eggs.

               I sprinkled some dried parsley for garnish :)  Serve immediately.

                                                          Enjoy! xo
