Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons honey
1 egg
3/4 cup shredded carrot
1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut (optional)
Oil, for pan frying
Maple syrup or cream cheese frosting, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices and salt until well combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, vanilla, vegetable oil, honey, and egg. Add wet ingredient mixture to dry ingredients and whisk until no dry pockets of flour remain. Fold in shredded carrot and coconut.
  • Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add just enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Cooking no more than three at a time, measure out 1/4 cupfuls of pancake mixture into the hot oil and use the back of a spoon to spread each mound into a shallow circle. Use a spatula to flip each pancake once the bottom has become lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Continue frying until pancakes are cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat frying process with remaining batter and more oil if necessary.
  • Serve pancakes warm with maple syrup or cream cheese frosting.
