How To Make
So how do you actually make these savory pizza pancakes? It’s simple; we’ll walk you through it.
In a large mixing bowl, add the bisquick baking mix, Italian seasonings, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Use a fork to whisk them together until evenly combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, add the eggs & milk. Whisk together until the eggs are beaten and the mixture’s smooth.
Make a small well in the dry ingredients, pour the wet mixture into the divot.
Mix everything together until the batter’s just combined.
Don’t under mix, but also don’t over mix. You’ll know when it’s ready.
Fold in the cheese & pizza toppings you’re using, just until evenly incorporated.
Working in 1/4 cup fulls, pour the batter out on to a hot, lightly greased griddle.
Let the pancakes cook until bubbles form on top.
Use a spatula with a sharp edge to flip, and continue cooking until the pancake’s underside is also lightly golden brown.
Serve the pancakes in stacks of 3-4 topped with a ladle-full of warmed pizza sauce, and a healthy sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
You can also used the grated, canned kind in a pinch.
It won’t hurt the flavor, at all. It’s just a matter of convenience and/or preference.
