Blood Orange-Cardamom Pancakes
Blood Orange-Cardamom Pancakes
Yield: 8-10 pancakes
Time: 15-20 minutes
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl combine the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar. Set aside
In a smaller bowl, combine the milk, orange juice & zest, and extracts.
Mix the wet into the dry until combined. The batter should not be too thin (like crepe batter) or too thick (like brownie batter). You should aim for a cake-like consistency. Set aside for 2-3 mins.
Meanwhile, heat a pan with neutral cooking oil (I prefer grapeseed or vegetable)
Using a 1/4 measuring cup or 2 oz cookie scoop, pour batter into the pan. Cook the pancakes on one side until air pockets begin to appear on the surface and flip (about 1-2 mins per side)
Serve with the orange blossom glaze-tahini glaze (see notes) and/or yogurt/nut butter/ syrup of choice.
Garnish with sliced blood oranges, pomegranate seeds, and/or bananas. Sprinkle a dusting of cinnamon on top.
Slice and dive in!
