Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 250 milliliters Milk
- 30 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 100 grams Cheddar cheese, grated
- 30 grams Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 3 whole Spring onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently to form a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in the melted butter, grated Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and chopped spring onions. Mix until evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and lightly brush with vegetable oil.
Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter into a round shape if needed.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with extra grated cheese, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
