Melted butter, to oil griddle

6 eggs

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 orange, zested and juiced

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg

For the Orange Bourbon Butter:

1 pound unsalted butter, softened

2 tablespoons orange flavored liqueur (recommended: Cointreau)

2 tablespoons bourbon

3 tablespoons orange zest

Directions
