Eggnog Pancakes - Merry Christmas Eve

Now that we're married and settled in our new post wedding nest in Alameda (I'll post pics after I paint) we're discussing our favorite family holiday traditions and making our own holiday traditions. This recipe could easily be added to our traditions along with our recipe for beef wellington. Light fluffy and delicious, I ate two and wanted more. Thankfully the syrup ran out. :)

                                                                        Eggnog Pancakes

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups eggnog
• 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg if desired. In another bowl, beat eggs, eggnog and butter; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top; cook until second side is golden brown. 

* I had to thin this down a touch and did so with a little milk. Enjoy!
