SILVER DOLLAR BUTTERMILK-PECAN PANCAKES WITH BOURBON MOLASSES BUTTER AND MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, pecans, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, butter and vanilla extract and vanilla bean in a small bowl. Add the egg mixture to the dry mixture and gently mix to combine. Do not overmix. Let the batter sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes before using.
• Heat a cast iron or nonstick griddle pan over medium heat and brush with melted butter. Once the butter begins to sizzle, use 2 tablespoons of the batter for each pancake and cook until the bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes, flip over and cook until the bottom is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Transfer the pancakes to a platter and keep warm in a 200 degree F oven.
• Serve 6 pancakes per person, top each with some of the bourbon butter. Drizzle with warm maple syrup and dust with confectioners' sugar. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and more toasted pecans, if desired.
• Bourbon Molasses Butter:
• Combine the bourbon and sugar in a small saucepan and cook over high heat until reduced to 3 tablespoons, remove and let cool.
• Put the butter, molasses, salt and cooled bourbon mixture in a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before using to soften.

• For Pancakes:In a medium sized mixing bowl, blend together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and the milk. While whisking, slowly incorporate the milk mixture into the bowl of the mixed dry ingredients. Continue mixing while adding the melted butter. In a medium nonstick saute pan over medium heat, add enough oil to coat the pan. Using a small spoon, place small dollops of the batter into the pan. Allow the pancakes to brown lightly on one side before flipping them. Cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
• For Dill and Caper Cream: In a medium sized bowl, mix together the sour cream, shallot, dill, capers, and lemon juice. Season with salt.
• Assembly: Top each individual pancake with a bit of the dill cream and a slice of smoked salmon. Garnish each piece with a small sprig of dill.
