Spice Pancakes

Recipe by Sunny: Spice Pancakes/saved
Nice spice flavor. Quick and easy. Batter is on the thick side.
Medium heat in an omelet pan is 4 minutes on the first side and 2 on the flip. Not as many bubbles coming to the surface as I am used to.
Cake has a good fluff to it but not too much.
I'm getting down to the last tablespoon in my baking powder can. The batter initially had a lot of bubbles in it. I'm wondering if there wasn't a little separation of baking powder ingredients going on and a some baking soda settled out.
That would explain the thick batter and the bubbles in the batter initially and the lack of bubbles while the cake was cooking.

When I was reading my new baking powder can (to check the expiration date :-D) I noticed it said to shake the can before using! I did not know that. Who knew there was so much to baking powder!
Nice picture, pso. You sure do like the pancakes! :)

Didn't know that either. Somehow reasoned it out. On my new can now. Using the last of the old can to make a cornbread loaf. We'll see how it turns out.
Kinda' difficult to shake up a new can but I will remember to shake as the contents dwindle.

Since it's common to use cream cheese frosting with a spice cake, I wonder how these would be with cream cheese sandwiched in between? Perhaps I'll have to give it a try to find out! :)

Are you still going to add butter and syrup along with the cream cheese frosting? :-)
My sweet tooth is starting to ache.

My, that WOULD be a sweet/caloric blast! Enough to make my sweet tooth ache, too and turn my :) into a :( ...

Actually, my "vision" was more like plain cream cheese smeared in between the stack of pancakes with maple syrup on top-

Is that a little less "sweet-tooth-achey" sounding? :)
