Updated on Feb 8, 2012

I knew I wanted pancakes for breakfast, but while I was mixing my batter I couldn't help but think "how can I make this better?" The almond flavor came through perfectly sweet and slightly nutty. You can use any base pancake batter, I just posted my favorite. Google pic

How To Make almond pancakes with honey syrup

  • Step 1
    Sift flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a separate bowl whisk eggs and milk then add to flour mixture. Mix until smooth and stir in melted butter, almond extract and cinnamon. If batter is still too thick to pour, add a little more milk. Cook pancakes on a hot, greased griddle about 1/4 cup batter per pancake.
  • Step 2
    To make syrup, in a microwave safe bowl heat honey for about 15-20 seconds, so it is just warm and thin in consistency. Stir in cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Serve pancakes topped with almonds and drizzled with syrup.
  • Step 3
    The honey syrup recipe is good drizzled over fruit as well. I keep some around almost all the time in my honey bear :p
