These loaded cheddar and bacon cabbage pancakes combine crispy, cheesy goodness with a nutritious twist, perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 45 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/3 cup milk (or dairy-free milk)
  • 23 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Butter or oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Finely shred the cabbage and grate the cheddar cheese. Cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble it into small pieces. Chop the green onions and set everything aside.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk together to ensure even distribution.
  3. Combine the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until smooth.
  4. Create the batter: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently to avoid overmixing. Fold in the shredded cabbage, cheddar cheese, bacon, and green onions until evenly combined.
  5. Heat the skillet: Place your skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter or oil. Allow it to heat up completely before adding the batter.
  6. Cook the pancakes: Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake into the skillet, spreading slightly to form a circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Repeat: Continue cooking the pancakes in batches, adding more butter or oil as needed. Keep the cooked pancakes warm by placing them on a plate covered with foil.

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the batter to avoid tough pancakes.’, ‘Cook on medium heat to ensure the pancakes cook through without burning.’, ‘Let the cabbage dry slightly after shredding for extra crispy pancakes.’, ‘Adjust the batter consistency if needed by adding a splash of milk.’]
