Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar, parmesan, or your favorite)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or dill)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, or scallions)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or olive oil for cooking

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until smooth.
  3. Combine the mixtures: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  4. Fold in the extras: Gently fold in the grated cheese, chopped herbs, and vegetables until evenly distributed.
  5. Cook the pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little butter or oil. Drop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake into the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Serve: Serve warm with your favorite toppings like sour cream, yogurt, or poached eggs.
