Ingredients- 1 cup pancake mix (approx. 100-120g)
- 50g sliced cheese or shredded cheddar cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the pancake batter according to the instructions on your pancake mix packaging. If you’re making enough for two people, you might want to increase the amount of mix accordingly. This recipe is based on a single serving. Using an egg pan is highly recommended as it helps create consistently shaped pancakes! Pour a moderate amount of batter onto the preheated pan. Once the batter begins to puff up slightly, carefully place the prepared cheese in the center of the pancake.
Step 2
Cover the pancake with cheese with a lid and cook over very low heat, allowing it to cook slowly. This gentle cooking process helps the cheese melt and spread evenly throughout the pancake. Avoid high heat; slow and steady is key. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Now it’s time to fold or flip the pancake. If using an egg pan, carefully open the lid and gently fold the side without cheese over the side with cheese. (If using a regular pan, you might need to transfer the pancake to a plate and then flip it back into the pan.) Folding or flipping can be tricky at first, and the batter might spill or the shape might get a little messy. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect the first time – you’ll get the hang of it with practice! Many of us have experienced this little kitchen adventure. ^^
Step 4
After folding or flipping, continue to cook over low heat until both sides are golden brown and evenly cooked. Ensure the cheese is melted and gooey inside, while the outside is slightly crispy and the inside remains fluffy. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Voila! Your delicious cheesy pancake is perfectly golden brown. Doesn’t it smell wonderful?
Step 6
Carefully transfer the well-cooked pancake to a serving plate. For an extra touch of sweetness and visual appeal, you can dust it with powdered sugar using a sieve. Maple syrup or honey are also wonderful additions.
Step 7
This makes for an incredibly simple and satisfying breakfast for one! Pair it with half an apple and a warm cup of coffee for a complete and delightful morning meal. Enjoy your day with these easy yet nutritious cheesy pancakes!
