As special as the holidays, these fluffy pancakes are drop-dead gorgeous, ready in just minutes and brimming with sweet, tart and tangy flavor. Seconds, anyone? Ingredients:
syrup: |
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries |
2/3 cup orange juice |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons maple syrup |
pancakes: |
2 cups biscuit/baking mix |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 eggs |
1 egg yolk |
1 cup evaporated milk |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
1 teaspoon grated orange peel |
1/2 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries |
orange peel strips, optional |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring the cranberries, orange juice and sugar to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Cool slightly. With a slotted spoon, remove 1/4 cup cranberries; set aside.
2. In a blender, process cranberry mixture until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl; stir in maple syrup and reserved cranberries. Keep warm.
3. In a large bowl, combine the biscuit mix, sugar and baking powder. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, egg yolk, milk, orange juice and peel. Stir into dry ingredients just until blended. Fold in chopped cranberries.
4. Drop batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle; turn when bubbles form on top. Cook until second side is golden brown. Serve with syrup. Garnish with orange peel strips if desired. Yield: 12 pancakes (1-1/4 cups syrup).
