Savoury Stuffed Pancakes Recipe
Ingredients
For the Pancakes:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
For the Filling:
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon or sausage
- 1/2 cup finely chopped vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, spinach)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Toppings:
- Sour cream
- Salsa
- Fresh herbs
Instructions
- Prepare the Pancake Batter:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, and melted butter or oil.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just mixed (itβs okay if there are a few lumps).
- Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2 minutes.
- Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Assemble the Stuffed Pancakes:
- Lay out the cooked pancakes and sprinkle the cheese, bacon or sausage, and vegetables evenly over half of each pancake.
- Fold the other half of the pancake over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press down gently to seal.
- Heat Through:
- Return the stuffed pancakes to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the filling is heated through.
- Serve:
- Serve warm with optional toppings like sour cream, salsa, or fresh herbs.
