A pizza pancake is a fun and savory twist on traditional pancakes. It’s a simple and quick dish that combines the flavors of pizza in a pancake format. Here’s a basic recipe for making a pizza pancake:Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup diced pepperoni or your choice of pizza toppings (e.g., bell peppers, onions, olives)
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce
- Cooking oil or butter for cooking
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, water, and egg. Mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until you have a smooth pancake batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of cooking oil or butter.
- Pour a ladle of pancake batter onto the skillet, spreading it into a round shape, similar to a pancake.
- Quickly sprinkle some shredded mozzarella cheese and your choice of pizza toppings (e.g., diced pepperoni) over the pancake.
- Spoon a little pizza sauce over the toppings.
- Cook the pancake until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side until it’s golden brown and the cheese is melted, which should take another 2-3 minutes.
- Repeat the process to make additional pizza pancakes.
- Serve your pizza pancakes hot with extra pizza sauce for dipping, if desired.
Pizza pancakes are a fun and creative way to enjoy the flavors of pizza for breakfast or brunch. You can customize them with your favorite pizza toppings to suit your taste. Enjoy!
