Today’s Breakfast Delight: Savory Spinach Pancakes

Looking for a savory twist on a classic breakfast favorite? I’ve got just the recipe for you today! These savory spinach pancakes are a delicious way to start your morning with a burst of flavor and nutrients. Perfect for brunch or a leisurely weekend breakfast, these pancakes are sure to become a new family favorite.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 100g baby spinach (fresh)
• 150g all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 200ml milk
• 1 egg
• 30g butter (melted)
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• for cooking

To make these savory spinach pancakes, start by wilting the baby spinach in a hot pan until it is cooked down and any excess water has evaporated. Let the spinach cool before chopping it finely. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter. Gently fold in the chopped spinach until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Heat a bit of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour spoonfuls of the pancake batter into the skillet, spreading it out slightly with the back of the spoon. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve the savory spinach pancakes hot with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of honey for a delicious contrast of flavors. These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh off the pan, but any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 500g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 125g and contains approximately 200 calories.

One clever tip for these savory spinach pancakes is to add a handful of crumbled feta cheese to the batter for an extra layer of flavor and creaminess. You can also experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the pancakes to your taste.
