- 2 cups whole milk
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- ¼ cup maple syrup plus more for serving
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for garnish
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until combined – it’s okay if there are still some small clumps. Don’t overmix!
Preheat a griddle or nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Grease the pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray and use a ¼ cup measuring scoop to pour as many pancakes as will fit onto your pan.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bubbling on top and golden brown on the bottom. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes or until they are golden brown on the second side.
Transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining batter. Pancakes can be kept warm in a 200F oven for up to 30 minutes.
To serve, dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with warm maple syrup. Enjoy immediately.
