Pancakes

1 T. cinnamon

1 T. ginger

2 c. pancake mix

2 1/2 c. buttermilk

1/2 c. molasses

Mix dry ingredients.  Mix buttermilk and molasses.  Combine and make your pancakes!

Cinnamon Applesauce

2 golden delicious apples

3 c. applesauce

1/4 c. water

1/4 c. sugar

3 T. red hots

Peel and dice apples.  Add apples and remaining ingredients to a saucepan.  Heat over low-medium heat until it thickens (simmer about 15-20 minutes).  

Maple Whipped Cream

Whip them together until desired thickness.  (I will probably half this next time.  I always have lots leftover.)
