Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour sifted
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chai masala spice
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg beaten

Cardamom Cream

  • 1 cup heavy cream chilled
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. 1 In a large bowl, whisk together the sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and chai masala spice.
  2. 2 In a separate bowl, combine milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and beaten egg.
  3. 3 Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. 4 Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. 5 Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. 6 Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Keep warm until all pancakes are cooked.
  7. 7 To make the cardamom cream, beat the chilled heavy cream, powdered sugar, ground cardamom, and vanilla extract in a bowl until soft peaks form.
  8. 8 Serve the pancakes warm topped with a generous dollop of cardamom cream.
