Ginger Pancakes With Maple-Pecan Syrup

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"If you want an extra fluffy pancake use club soda in place of water or use 1/2 cup each. This makes a lot of pancakes, good thing though these are so good!... this batter will keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days."

You did it again Kit; great recipe - made this for visiting family and they really thought I'd done something special. Love the blend of flavors - I also added some bits of fresh ginger and followed your recommendation and used a whole cup of club soda, couldn't ask for a better pancake - soft, fluffy and perfect. Thanks for posting.

Wow excellant pancakes Kit. They are big, thick, light, tender, fluffy and of so flavorful. These spicy little cakes are awesome. The syrup was delicious, the cinnamon and pecans really made it sparkle. Thanks for sharing another wonderful recipe with all of us.
