Fluffy spiced carrot pancakes with walnuts and a lightly sweet cream cheese glaze.
Instructions

Step 1
Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, and brown sugar together.

Step 2
Finely grate the peeled carrot. Chop the walnuts into small pieces.

Step 3
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then remove it from the heat and let it cool briefly.
-
Step 4
Whisk the eggs with 1 cup (240 ml) of the milk, the vanilla, and 2 tbsp (30 gr) of the melted butter. Set the remaining butter aside for the pan.

Step 5
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir just until combined. Fold in the prepared carrot and walnuts.

Step 6
Let the batter rest at room temperature.

Step 7
Whisk the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and remaining 1 tbsp (15 ml) milk until smooth and pourable.

Step 8
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with some of the reserved butter. Cook the batter in batches, turning each pancake when bubbles appear and the underside is golden; cook the second side until set, using the remaining reserved butter as needed.

Divide the pancakes among four plates and spoon the cream cheese glaze over them.
