Bacon and Egg Pancakes Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)

How to make Bacon and Egg Pancakes:

1

Cook Bacon: Cook bacon in a skillet until crispy. Drain on paper towels, then crumble into small pieces.

Prepare Pancake Batter:

2

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

3

Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine milk, egg, and melted butter.

4

Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; it’s okay if the batter is a bit lumpy.

5

Add Bacon: Gently fold the crumbled bacon (and cheese if using) into the batter.

6

Heat Skillet: Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.

7

Cook Pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

8

Serve: Keep pancakes warm in a low oven or covered with a towel while you cook the remaining pancakes. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like syrup or a dollop of sour cream.
