cheese pancakes

Yesterday we celebrated la Chandeleur (candlemas here), also known as Crepe day.

I usually make a lot of crepe, using our family recipe.

But lately work has been very busy, especially after missing some days because of the snowzilla,

so I cheated a little and made cheese pancakes instead.

Surprise?

it is actually very tasty, a little like galette, both are made from buckwheat.

I started with the pancake mix, but changed the ingredient needed:

2/3 cup mix

1 egg

t tsp olive oil

3/4 cup milk

salt, pepper, herbes de Provence

and of course cheese.

I like to use Swiss with a little bit of blue cheese.

I shredded the Swiss, and crumbled some blue in the finish dough,

then I cooked them on the pan like regular pancakes.

The shapes are a lot more organic than traditional pancakes....

Enjoy them warm with some hard cider,

perfect for a quick dinner!

It would be also perfect for Mardi Gras, next Tuesday!

Happy day!
