Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 large egg
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
– Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
4. Gently fold in the crumbled goat cheese, being careful not to break up the cheese too much.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.
6. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Continue cooking the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
9. Serve the Goat Cheese Pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as a drizzle of honey, fresh berries, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
These Goat Cheese Pancakes are a delightful departure from the usual sweet pancakes and are perfect for those who prefer a more savory breakfast option. The tangy goat cheese adds a unique flavor that pairs beautifully with the light and fluffy texture of the pancakes. Whether you serve them for a leisurely weekend brunch or a cozy breakfast in bed, these pancakes are sure to become a new household favorite. So, dust off your skillet and get ready to impress your taste buds with this delightful recipe!
