the details of the super festive gingerbread pancakes
These gingerbread pancakes taste exactly like a gingerbread cookie and make your house smell amazing. They are perfect for anyone who likes gingerbread, but not the hard cookie texture (like me) or people who want their house to smell cozy and a delicious breakfast ;). Gingerbread pancakes are also super easy to make, as they are like your basic pancake, but with the addition of molasses and a few spices. They are perfect for Christmas morning and throughout the whole Holiday season. These pancakes are best paired with a sprinkle of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, and some festive holiday sprinkles.
