Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of ground cloves
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup grated carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons raisins (optional)

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and sugar until combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  4. Fold in the grated carrots and any optional nuts or raisins.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
  7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and bubbles appear on the surface.
  8. Flip and cook the other side until done.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Chef Tariq suggests using freshly grated carrots for the best texture and flavor.
  • Amara recommends a light cream cheese glaze as a topping for an extra touch of decadence.
  • Leo likes to add a tiny pinch of fresh ginger to the dry ingredients for a warmer spice note.
