Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
• Butter or oil for cooking
• Maple syrup, for serving

How to Make Cheesy Pancake Stack

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, and melted butter until well combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
4. Fold in the shredded cheese, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.
6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
9. Stack the pancakes on a plate, drizzling with maple syrup before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your skillet is hot enough before pouring the batter to achieve a nice golden color.
• Don’t overmix your batter—it’s okay if there are a few lumps!
• For extra cheesy goodness, sprinkle some cheese between the layers as you stack the pancakes.

Easy Variations

• Add cooked bacon or sausage for a heartier version.
• Mix in herbs like chives or parsley for a fresh flavor.
• Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for a tangy twist.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh fruit, like berries or sliced bananas
• A side of crispy bacon or sausage links
• A light salad for a refreshing contrast
• Whipped cream for an extra indulgent touch
