Eggless Ginger Pancakes

This is a different pancake to be sure as it is eggless and uses a mix (like Krusteaz).

• 4 cups of the whole wheat and honey pancake mix * see above
• 3 tsp. finely chopped preserved ginger
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
• pinch of ground cloves
• 2 tsp. molasses
• 3  1/2 cups water

In a large bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, spices, molasses and water, blending well.

Heat griddle and spray with nonstick spray if necessary. Pour batter onto the hot griddle, forming medium sized pancakes. When bubbles form, flip and brown the other side.

Lemon Sauce

• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tbsp. cornstarch
• 2 cups water
• 1/4 cup butter
• 2 tbsp. grated lemon zest
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Combine the sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan. Gradually, whisk in the water and bring to a boil. Stir constantly for about 5 minutes until thickens. Remove from the heat and add the butter, zest and juice. Serve warm over the pancakes.

This makes about 18 pancakes.
