What You’ll Need:
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 3/4 cup of milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
- 4 slices of prosciutto
- 1/2 cup of your favorite cheese, grated
- Maple syrup for serving (optional)
Step 1: Prepare the Pancake Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough.
Step 2: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the pancakes are cooked.
Step 3: Assemble the Prosciutto and Cheese Topping
While the pancakes are cooking, crisp up the prosciutto slices in a separate skillet over medium heat. This will enhance its flavor and add a nice texture.
Once the prosciutto is crispy, remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
Take a pancake and place a slice of crispy prosciutto on top. Sprinkle grated cheese over the prosciutto.
Repeat this process for the remaining pancakes.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!
Stack the dressed pancakes on a plate and drizzle them with maple syrup if desired. The combination of sweet and savory flavors will leave your taste buds craving for more.
Now it’s time to dig in and savor the deliciousness of your prosciutto and cheese dressed pancakes!
