I found this recipe for sweetcorn, feta and spring onion pancakes on the Olive magazine website when searching for savoury pancake recipes in preparation for Pancake Day (Shrove Tuesday). The stack of pancakes with the optional bacon within each layer looked really appetising and I decided this would be one of the recipes I'd try.
The end result is delicious savoury pancakes, full of flavour from the sweet corn, salty feta and spring onions. We decided to have the bacon and tried them with sriracha and with chipotle hot sauce. Although the chipotle hot sauce was good, especially over the bacon, we both decided our preference was the sriracha. If you have a sweet tooth, try honey or maple syrup!
These pancakes are delicious to enjoy for breakfast, brunch, a snack, or evening meal with a salad on the side...enjoy!!
Tips
- Sweetcorn - the original recipes asks for the kernels from 2 corn on the cob. I always have a bag of frozen sweetcorn in the freezer so decided to use it instead having googled to find out roughly how much grams of kernels of corn are on a cob!
- This sweetcorn, feta and spring onion pancakes recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
