Inventing new flavors is something that will enhance your palate and open your eyes to how ingredients can work in different ways.
The idea of basil infused pancakes came from experimenting with low carb flours and thinking of how pancakes can fit more than just the sweet breakfast treat they are. Using basil, an extremely aromatic herb, makes this recipe a delicious idea for many others to come.
The same way as you see infused pastas and wraps, this recipe can be made with spinach or sun-dried tomatoes.
These pancakes can be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge for a couple of days. All you need to do is pop it into a panini maker or a toaster and add any toppings of your preference such as bacon, shrimp, smoked salmon, etc…
It’s the perfect quick solution for breakfast or lunch, trust me you will not regret trying it!
