Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon butter for cooking pancakes

How to Make Cheesy Sweet Pancake Stacks

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, egg, and melted butter. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
3. Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter. Once melted and bubbling, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
5. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat until all the batter is used.
6. Stack the pancakes on a plate, drizzle with warm maple syrup, and enjoy while hot!

Tips for the Best Results

• Don’t overmix the batter; a few lumps will give your pancakes a better texture.
• Make sure your skillet is adequately heated before adding the batter to achieve a golden-brown color.
• For an extra gooey experience, add more cheese between the layers of pancakes.

Easy Variations

• Herbed Cheese: Mix in some finely chopped chives or parsley for a fresh flavor.
• Fruit Toppings: Add sliced bananas or berries on top for a fruity balance.
• Chocolate Drizzle: Swap the maple syrup for a chocolate sauce for a sweeter twist.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy bacon or sausage for a savory contrast.
• Fresh fruit salad to brighten up the plate.
• A dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
