Description

These savory pancakes offer a delightful twist on a breakfast classic, achieving a wonderful harmony of textures and flavors. Imagine a light yet satisfyingly rich experience, where the tender interior gives way to a delicately crisp exterior. Each bite is a comforting embrace, perfect for starting your day on a delicious note.

These aren't just any pancakes; they're a celebration of simple ingredients transformed into something truly special. The humble potato, grated and blended with care, forms the heart of these savory delights. The addition of finely diced ham introduces a subtle saltiness and a meaty depth that elevates the pancakes beyond the ordinary.

Imagine the tiny morsels of ham, studded throughout, releasing their savory essence as they cook. Fresh scallions, with their mild oniony bite, add a welcome burst of freshness and a vibrant green hue. They provide a counterpoint to the richness of the potato and ham, creating a balanced and harmonious flavor profile.

The scallions not only contribute to the taste but also add visual appeal, making each pancake a miniature work of art. These pancakes are incredibly versatile and can be enjoyed in numerous ways. For a classic pairing, serve them with a dollop of cool sour cream or creamy Greek yogurt.

The tangy coolness cuts through the richness of the pancakes, creating a delightful contrast. Alternatively, consider serving them alongside a fried or poached egg for a more substantial and complete breakfast. The runny yolk will coat the pancakes, adding another layer of richness and flavor.

These savory pancakes are also wonderful as a light lunch or dinner. Try topping them with a fried egg and a sprinkle of fresh herbs for a quick and satisfying meal. They can even be served as an appetizer, offering a unique and flavorful alternative to traditional hors d'oeuvres.

Whether you're looking for a comforting breakfast, a light lunch, or a unique appetizer, these savory pancakes are sure to please. Their delightful combination of textures and flavors, coupled with their versatility, makes them a welcome addition to any table. Prepare to be captivated by their simple elegance and their ability to transform ordinary ingredients into something extraordinary.

Instructions

    1.
    In a stand mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped egg whites to a separate bowl and set aside. Clean the mixing bowl thoroughly for the next step.
    2.
    In the mixer, combine the almond flour, salt, baking powder, instant mashed potatoes, chopped scallions, and finely chopped ham.
    3.
    Combine the heavy cream and water, then mix into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the air bubbles.
    4.
    Heat a non-stick pan or skillet over low heat. Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, drop in 3-4 scoops of batter, approximately 3 fluid ounces each (slightly less than 1/4 cup). Cook the pancakes for about 4 minutes per side, adjusting heat as needed.
    5.
    Continue cooking all the pancakes, using about 1/2 tablespoon of butter per 3 pancakes. Allow the pancakes to cool slightly before serving.
