Description

Zucchini and goat cheese pancakes are a light, savory dish with grated zucchini and tangy goat cheese in a fluffy pancake batter. Sauté and enjoy!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 cup grated zucchini (squeezed to remove excess moisture)
  • 1/4 cup goat cheese (crumbled)
  • Optional toppings: yogurt, sliced cherry tomatoes
Instructions
  1. Prepare the Zucchini

    Grate the zucchini and place it in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible to prevent soggy pancakes.

    Tip: Removing excess water ensures crispier pancakes and better texture.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients

    Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt until evenly combined.

    (Similar to the Spinach and Feta Pancakes, Sundried tomato and parmesan pancakes recipes)

    Tip: Sifting the dry ingredients can prevent lumps and promote even mixing.
  3. Combine the Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg and melted butter until smooth. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently to create a batter.

    Tip: Avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  4. Fold in the Add-ins

    Gently fold in the grated zucchini and crumbled goat cheese until just combined. Ensure even distribution without overmixing.

    Tip: Add a pinch of pepper or herbs like dill for extra flavor if desired.
  5. Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

    Tip: A well-heated pan prevents sticking and ensures even browning.
  6. Cook the Pancakes

    Spoon small portions of the batter (around ¼ cup) onto the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

    Tip: Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain consistent heat and easy flipping.
  7. Serve and Garnish

    Transfer the pancakes to a serving plate and keep them warm. Top with yogurt, sliced cherry tomatoes or your favorite garnish.

    Tip: Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
