Did you know there’s archaeological evidence suggesting that pancakes were the most widely eaten cereal food in prehistoric times?
Well, according to Wikipedia, at least.
Also according to Wikipedia:
“Pancakes may be served at any time of the day with a variety of toppings or fillings…”
Did you catch that?
Pancakes may be served any time of day.
THANKS WIKIPEDIA!!
Sweet pancakes and toppings are probably the first type of pancake that comes to mind, but savory pancakes are just as delicious in my book.
And these Soyrizo pancakes definitely fall into the savory pancake category.
Studded with bell peppers, tomatoes, scallions, and freshly grated cheddar, these Soyrizo pancakes manage to taste fresh and decadent at the same time. And I absolutely love the texture and slight crunch the cornmeal brings to this batter.
The Soyrizo adds amazing flavor (and protein) that perfectly complements the veggies and cornmeal in these pancakes.
Then you dip the pancakes in my creamy Sriracha sauce (you know how much I love dipping sauces and aiolis!), and you’ve got one amazing vegetarian appetizer! You can even control the heat of this sauce: use 2 or 3 Tbsp of Sriracha for more or less heat, and either way this creamy Sriracha is addicting.
You could also make these Savory Soyrizo pancakes a meal by serving them over a bed of greens with some chickpeas, and the creamy Sriracha drizzled over the top.
Pancakes of course require a really good spatula for flipping. So you know I’m going to recommend my favorite spatula here!
This spatula [aff. link] is the perfect size for flipping these savory pancakes, and as you may know, I love this tool for literally everything else that requires a spatula: sautéing veggies, taking cookies off the cookie sheet (the spatula’s intended purpose, but it’s truly sooo much more than that!), and flipping burgers, etc. Definitely check it out on Amazon!

Make these Savory Soyrizo Pancakes this week.
And, if you’re feeling on the fence about having pancakes for dinner, just remember that Wikipedia said it was OK, and go for it.

You know, I love a good savory pancake or waffle. I still prefer the breakfast version with maple syrup, but I don’t mind mixing it up from time to time. This sounds quite tasty, Shannon, and I’m digging that creamy sriracha sauce you used here, too!
Thanks David! Oh yes, there is nothing like the traditional pancake with maple syrup, I definitely agree!
Shannon, here in Sweden it is traditional to have pancakes on Thursday nights. So, yes Wikipedia is correct. I love savory pancakes, so this sounds very tasty. Especially the Sriracha sauce.
Thanks Ron! And that is AWESOME. I absolutely love that Thursday nights are a pancake tradition in Sweden!!
