Savory Pesto Pancakes Recipe

Today’s Unique Creation: Savory Pesto Pancakes

Today, I’m excited to share a unique dish that blends the flavors of traditional Italian pesto with the comforting, fluffy texture of pancakes. This savory twist on a classic breakfast favorite is perfect for a lazy weekend brunch or a cozy weeknight dinner. Let’s dive into the details of this delicious recipe!

Ingredients:

• 150g all-purpose flour
• 5g baking powder
• 2g salt
• 200ml milk
• 1 egg
• 50g pesto
• 25g grated Parmesan cheese
• 20g butter, melted

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• frying pan
• spatula

To start, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, pesto, grated Parmesan cheese, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown on both sides.

Serve the savory pesto pancakes hot, topped with additional pesto, grated Parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of olive oil if desired. The combination of the herby pesto, cheesy Parmesan, and fluffy pancakes is sure to delight your taste buds!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 600g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 150g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

Clever Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding some sun-dried tomatoes or pine nuts to the batter for a Mediterranean twist on these savory pancakes!
