I was looking at my site and realized I had a sad lack of bacon recipes on here. I love bacon, pretty sure I am not alone there. And my favorite bacon is Jones Dairy Farm. You guys already know I love all of their breakfast meats, and their Canadian Bacon is YUMMY! You may remember the breakfast stuffed french bread I shared last month. Well, I loved so much making that, and having a great savory breakfast option I decided to make a savory pancake!
Ricotta pancakes are delicious, they are thick, cheesy, and offer a fresh twist on a classic favorite. They take a little longer to cook than regular pancakes, and you want to really stick to that longer cooking time, as if you don’t cook long enough, the center will be gooey, and feel undercooked. Then you will not enjoy it at all.
I topped mine with sour cream and chives, but my kids still put syrup on it. Which I get since bacon and syrup is pretty good. But I am sticking with the sour cream or plain for now!
Check out this video to see how easy they are to make!
These pancakes make a great brinner option too. Check out the Jones Dairy Farm website for more brinner ideas, as well as these:
