Make the pancake batter by stirring together the ⅔ cups all-purpose flour1 tablespoon granulated sugar,2 teaspoons baking powder, and pinch cinnamon
Then add in the 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, ⅓ cup whole milk, 2 tablespoons orange juice and ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract and mix well.
Fold in the ½ teaspoon orange zest and ⅓ cup frozen cranberries.
Then heat your pan over medium to low heat, add a heaping ⅓ cup of the batter to the center of the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden on both sides.
Repeat with the other two pancakes.
To make the ⅓ cup pancake syrup, add the ⅓ cup frozen cranberries, 1 tablespoons granulated sugar, and syrup to a saucepan.
Cook over medium heat, stirring almost constantly, for about 5-7 minutes, smashing the cranberries against the sides of the saucepan once they are soft enough. This can be made at the same time as the pancakes, on a separate burner on the stove.
Serve the pancakes with the syrup and enjoy!
