5 Savoury Pancake Recipes

1. Cheddar and Chive Pancakes with Crispy Bacon
   Add grated mature cheddar and chopped chives to your pancake batter for a cheesy twist. Serve with crispy bacon strips and a drizzle of maple syrup for that perfect balance of savoury and sweet.

2. Spinach, Feta, and Red Pepper Pancakes
   Fold sautéed spinach, crumbled feta, and roasted red pepper into your pancake batter. Finish with a dollop of Greek yoghurt and a sprinkle of smoked paprika for extra flavour.

3. Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Crepes
   Light crepes make the perfect base for smoked salmon and cream cheese. Add a squeeze of lemon, capers, and fresh dill for a sophisticated touch.

4. Mushroom and Garlic Pancakes with Gruyère
   Sauté mushrooms in butter and garlic, then top your pancakes with the mixture and a sprinkle of grated Gruyère. Pop them under the grill for a minute to melt the cheese to perfection.

5. Breakfast Pancakes with Sausage and Fried Egg
   For a full English-inspired option, stack pancakes with grilled sausages, a fried egg, and a splash of HP or ketchup. It’s the ultimate breakfast-for-dinner treat!

1. Classic Lemon and Sugar Pancakes
   A timeless favourite. Simply sprinkle sugar over your warm pancake, squeeze fresh lemon juice on top, and roll it up. Sometimes the simplest things are the best.

2. Nutella and Banana Pancakes

3. Berry Compote and Vanilla Mascarpone Pancakes
   Make a quick berry compote by simmering mixed berries with a little sugar and lemon juice. Serve over pancakes with a dollop of vanilla-flavoured mascarpone.

4. Salted Caramel and Toasted Pecan Pancakes
   Drizzle warm salted caramel sauce over your pancakes and sprinkle with toasted pecans. For an extra treat, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
