Pancakes are a popular part of the breakfast menus. But for lunch or even dinner they are good too! If you are looking for a nice alternative to the good old plain ones, then this ham and cheese pancake recipe will surely make you happy! And you can get your whole family to participate and be involved in the making of this healthy substitute.

Before trying your hand at this ham and cheese pancake recipe you will need a mixing bowl, large spatula, wooden spoon, and a good skillet. If you haven't got a wooden spoon though, any spoon will suffice really.

Before you begin, there are a few things you will need to pull together, only a few basic kitchen tools. You will need a skillet or griddle, a mixing bowl, a large spatula to help you flip those pancakes and a wooden spoon (any spoon will do though if you don't have a wooden one).

Now for the main part: the ingredients. Here is what is required for this recipe: 135 grams of self-rising flour, sifted, 125ml of cold milk, a large egg, one pinch of salt, 1 cup of ham, roughly chopped, 1/2 cup of your cheese of choice and 1 teaspoon of dill pickle or chopped dill. This is optional, but it does add a nice touch to it.

Be sure you possess everything you need; then get started. Place the flour, milk, egg and salt in your bowl. Combine all of those nicely, until your batter has a smooth texture to it. You can then incorporate the ham and the cheese and fold everything in nicely.

It is best if you let the batter rest for about 5 minutes before cooking it. Pour into even amounts, separated by enough space to let them rise properly. When you start noticing little bubbles popping at the surface, and the sides are cooked, you are ready for the flip.

Quickly flip the pancakes. When they have achieved the desired color, they are ready to be served! If you cannot serve them right away for any reason, all you have to do is line up some paper towel on a plate and lay your pancakes on it. Just be sure not to cover them.

This ham and cheese pancake recipe offers a nice alternative for anybody in need of a change. If you like to eat with a little more twist, a pinch of cayenne pepper should do it for you. A healthy meal or snack for everyone to enjoy!
