Instructions

In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cinnamon. Set aside this dry mixture. In a separate bowl, beat egg, vanilla extract, and molasses until the mixture is smooth. Whisk in water until everything is fully combined. Gently stir the flour mixture into the molasses mixture until just combined. A few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle to medium-high heat. Drop large spoonfuls of pancake batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles start to appear and the edges look dry. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the opposite side. Continue this process with the remaining batter.
