Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 pound ground meat (chicken, turkey, or pork)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/4 cup spicy sauce (such as sriracha or hot sauce)
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• Vegetable oil for frying

How to Make Savory Breakfast Pancakes with Spicy Sauce

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
2. In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, and olive oil until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Set the batter aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the ground meat with garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Form the mixture into a flat patty.
4. Coat the patty in bread crumbs, pressing lightly to adhere. In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat and cook the patty for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
5. In the same skillet, pour about a 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
6. To serve, layer a pancake, top with the crispy patty, and drizzle with spicy sauce. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your skillet is hot enough before adding the pancakes to ensure they cook evenly.
• Adjust the thickness of the batter with additional milk if needed; a thicker batter makes fluffier pancakes.
• For extra flavor, mix herbs or spices into the pancake batter.

Easy Variations

• Swap the ground meat for a plant-based alternative for a vegetarian option.
• Use a different flavor of spicy sauce, like chipotle or a tangy BBQ sauce.
• Add shredded cheese to the pancake batter for an extra savory touch.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
• A dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for creaminess.
• Crispy bacon or sausage links for added protein.
