Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 small Green chili, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or butter for frying
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, chili powder, smoked paprika, and cumin powder.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and stir in the milk and melted butter.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should still be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the chopped cilantro and finely chopped green chili for a burst of fresh and spicy flavor.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or butter.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread it slightly to create an even circle.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed, until all the pancakes are cooked.
Serve the spicy pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, yogurt, or a drizzle of hot sauce for added heat.
