Start your day with our indulgent chorizo pancake stack! Rich, savory, and loaded with flavor for the ultimate breakfast comfort.
Ingredients
- • all-purpose flour: 1 cup
- • baking powder: 2 teaspoons
- • sugar: 1 tablespoon
- • salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • whole milk: 1 cup
- • eggs: 2
- • unsalted butter, melted: 2 tablespoons
- • chorizo sausage, crumbled: 8 ounces
- • ripe avocados, sliced: 2
- • lime juice: 2 tablespoons
- • sour cream: 1/2 cup
- • fresh cilantro, chopped: 2 tablespoons
- • olive oil: 1 tablespoon for cooking
- • optional: maple syrup for drizzling
Instructions
- 1 Start by cooking the chorizo. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled chorizo until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the milk and melted butter.
- 3 Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- 4 Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with olive oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- 5 To make the lime crema, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a small bowl.
- 6 Assemble the pancake stack by layering pancakes with crumbled chorizo and avocado slices. Top with a generous dollop of lime crema and a sprinkle of cilantro. Drizzle with maple syrup if desired.
- 7 Serve immediately, allowing the warm pancakes and savory chorizo to create a delightful contrast with the creamy avocado and zesty lime crema.
Serving Suggestions
- • This indulgent breakfast is perfect on its own, but you can complement it with a side of crispy bacon for an extra layer of savory goodness. Fresh fruit like strawberries or blueberries add a touch of natural sweetness that pairs beautifully with the pancakes. As for beverages, a freshly brewed cup of coffee or a tangy mimosa can enhance the flavors and make your breakfast feel like a true celebration.
Storage Tips
If you have leftovers, store the pancakes and chorizo separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm the pancakes in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until heated through. The chorizo can be reheated in a skillet. Reassemble the stack just before serving for the best texture.
