Time 4h5m

Yield 8 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/3 cups hand-grated sharp Cheddar (see Cook's Note)
1 1/3 cups pre-grated mild Cheddar
Pancake Batter, recipe follows
2 cups cooked elbow macaroni
4 hot dogs, sliced into 1/4-inch circles, optional
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pancakes
3 scallions, thinly sliced
Habanero Maple Syrup, recipe follows
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 habanero pepper
4 cups Vermont maple syrup

Steps:

  • Blend together the hand-grated and pre-grated Cheddars in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Preheat griddle to medium heat. Ladle 4 pancakes on the griddle at a time; do not overcrowd. Add 1/4 cup macaroni to each pancake, followed by 1/2 hot dog per pancake, if using, followed by 1/3 cup Cheddar per pancake. When you notice the edges bubbling vigorously, spray the entire pancake and griddle with nonstick spray, then flip the pancakes. Press down on the pancakes with a great deal of force (think panini style).
  • Cook until the cheese is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Remove from the griddle, sprinkle with scallions and serve with warm Habanero Syrup. Repeat to make 4 more.
  • Mix flour, baking soda, salt, eggs and buttermilk in a bowl until just combined; your batter should look lightly lumpy but combined. Set aside for at least 2 hours.
  • Slice habanero in half and place in a saucepan with maple syrup. Bring up to a full boil and turn off right away to avoid boil-over. Let stand for 3 hours. Strain out pepper.

These pancakes are a fun and easy way to get your kids to eat their mac and cheese. My kids loved them and they're a great way to use up leftovers.

I made these pancakes for my husband's birthday breakfast and he loved them! He said they were the best pancakes he's ever had. I'll definitely be making them again.

These pancakes are a great way to use up leftover mac and cheese. I simply added some flour, eggs, and milk to the mac and cheese and cooked them in a pan. They were a hit with my kids!

These pancakes were delicious! I used a sharp cheddar cheese and they had a nice cheesy flavor. I also added some chopped bacon to the batter for extra flavor. My family loved them!

I'm always looking for new and interesting recipes, so I was excited to try these mac and cheese pancakes. Unfortunately, they were a bit of a disappointment. The pancakes were dry and the flavor was bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

These pancakes were a fun experiment, but I don't think I'll be making them again. They're just not my thing.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pancakes turned out a weird green color. I guess I'll stick to regular pancakes next time.

I'm not a big fan of mac and cheese, but these pancakes were surprisingly good. The hot dog added a nice touch.
