December is National Eggnog Month. No big surprise there.
I’m not the biggest fan of the drink. I tend to be sensitive to nutmeg – though I am getting much better about it!
I’ve used it in baking twice before. Once in cookies for #FoodieExtravaganza, and once in my #BundtBakers cake that will be debuting later this month. I quite enjoy eggnog as an ingredient. I haven’t tried it in a savory application, yet, and was hoping a Sunday Supper member might have figured out a way, but all the offerings are on the sweet side of the specrum. Be sure to scroll past my recipe to see all the sweet, delicious recipes!
That remaining eggnog in my fridge was begging to be used in pancakes and we went right ahead and did just that! By happy circumstance, today’s #SundaySupper eggnog event was announced shortly after that. Thanks to Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventure for hosting this festive event.
These eggnog pancakes were a huge hit with my kids. I don’t think I’ve seen Firecracker eat so much in one sitting in quite some time!
Eggnog pancakes with cranberry syrup would make for a perfect Christmas morning breakfast.

I almost made pancakes but I don’t think they would have looked as good as yours. They are so fluffy!
Haha!! I’m sure they would have been lovely. These are insanely fluffy.
Love this combination of eggnog and cranberry for breakfast!
They’re a perfect pairing!
Your pancakes look so perfect and fluffy! And paired with the cranberry sauce makes for a festive holiday breakfast!!
Thank you, Liz.
