Herb-Infused Savory Pancakes

Ingredients

Vegetable oil

2 tablespoons

Unsalted butter

3 tablespoons, melted

Egg

1

Milk

1 cup

Fresh herbs (parsley, chives, dill)

1/2 cup, finely chopped

Black pepper

1/4 teaspoon

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Baking powder

1 teaspoon

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
2. Add the finely chopped fresh herbs to the flour mixture and stir until the herbs are evenly distributed.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, and melted butter. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
5. Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
6. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until they are golden brown and fully cooked.
7. Serve the pancakes warm. They pair wonderfully with toppings like sour cream, smoked salmon, or sautéed vegetables. You can also try them with a dollop of caviar for an authentic Russian experience!
