Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 medium Fresh jalapenos (finely diced, seeds removed for less heat)
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 2 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or additional butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay.
Fold in the diced jalapenos, shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or a small amount of butter.
Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of the scoop to gently spread the batter into a round shape.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown on both sides.
Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between batches.
Serve the Jalapeno Pancakes hot with sour cream, salsa, or your favorite savory toppings. Enjoy!
