FOR THE PANCAKES:
1/2 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
2 teaspoons Evaporated Cane Juice, Or Granulated Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1/8 teaspoons Ground Ginger
1/4 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1 whole Egg White
1/2 cups Low Fat Buttermilk, Well-shaken
1/4 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
1/2 cups Finely Grated Carrots (using A Microplane Grater)
1 Tablespoon Finely Chopped Toasted Pecans (optional)
1 Tablespoon Raisins (optional)
FOR THE GLAZE:
1 Tablespoon Neufchatel Cream Cheese, At Room Temperature
1 Tablespoon Milk
1 teaspoon Evaporated Cane Juice, Or Granulated Sugar

1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, evaporated cane juice, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg white, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Stir in grated carrots.
3
Stir dry ingredients into the wet just until moistened. Gently fold in chopped pecans and raisins, if using. Set aside to rest.
4
Meanwhile, make the glaze by beating together the softened neufchatel, milk, and evaporated cane juice until smooth and glossy.

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Coat with cooking spray. When hot, spoon the batter into the skillet by the 1/4 cupful. When bubbles appear on the surface of the batter (about 1-2 minutes), the pancakes are ready to be flipped. Flip pancakes and let cook for another minute or so, or until golden brown.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
