• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup brewed coffee
• 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 4 tablespoons butter, melted

Cream together the eggs and brown sugar. Add the buttermilk, water and coffee, and stir until smooth. Set aside.

In a separate container, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.

Combine the egg mixture with the flour mixture, and stir in the melted butter. Makes about 3-1/2 cups of batter, or enough for 8 to 10 pancakes.
