Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 1 Egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.5 cups Chopped pecans
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened for crumble)
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for crumble)
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened for cinnamon maple butter)
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the cinnamon maple butter: In a small bowl, combine 6 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or until ready to serve.

Step 2

Make the pecan crumble: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of softened butter, and 2 tablespoons of flour. Mix with a fork until the mixture has a crumbly texture. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1.25 cups of whole milk, 1 large egg, and 3 tablespoons of melted butter.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are fine.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Step 7

Scoop 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Allow pancakes to cook until bubbles form and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 8

Once the pancakes are cooked, keep them warm. In a separate small skillet over medium heat, toast the pecan crumble mixture for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and golden brown.

Step 9

Serve pancakes stacked with a generous sprinkle of the pecan crumble on top and a dollop of the chilled cinnamon maple butter. Drizzle additional maple syrup if desired.
