Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup eggnog
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
For the Topping
  • 1 cup whipped cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup optional

Method
 

Prepare the Pancake Batter
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
  2. In another bowl, mix the eggnog, egg, and melted butter until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
Cook the Pancakes
  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Serve
  1. Stack the pancakes on plates, top with whipped cream, and sprinkle with ground nutmeg.
  2. Drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract to the batter. These pancakes are best served fresh but can also be kept warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
