Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Whisk eggs and milk together in a separate bowl.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients until smooth.

Melt butter and stir into the batter.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot.

Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet, swirling to cover the bottom.

Cook until edges are set and the bottom is golden, about 2-3 minutes.

Flip and cook the other side until golden, about 1-2 minutes.

Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

In a saucepan, combine cranberries, water, lemon juice, and sugar.

Cook over medium heat until cranberries burst and mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.

Mix cornstarch with a little water and add to the cranberry mixture, stirring until thickened.

Serve pancakes warm, topped with cranberry jam and dusted with powdered sugar.
