In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, vanilla, milk, and molasses until homogenous.
Add the baking powder, flour, cloves, and granulated sugar. Whisk until just combined. Make sure there are no pockets of dry four in the pancake batter.
Heat a pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add little bit of butter or nonstick cooking spray to the pan and then add about ¼ cup of pancake batter. Cook your pancake for about 1 ½ minutes per side, or until cooked all the way through.
Repeat with the remaining pancake batter and serve.
Notes
You’ll know it is time to flip your pancake when the top of the pancake is filled with bubbles that have popped.
You can replace the salted butter with unsalted butter and ¼ teaspoon salt
Whipped cream and/ or maple syrup go great with this pancakes! The lighter sweetness pairs great with the rich sweetness of the molasses and warm spice of the cloves.
Spray your measuring cup with non-stick cooking spray before measuring the molasses – it will slide right out without sticking and save you from a sticky cleanup.
