We have thoroughly enjoyed this delicious recipe twice twice now. Both times, I have scaled it back by a third which provided a generous quantity for two of us. I also made two pancakes rather than the one as they're easier to turn over, but making one or two is certainly easier than making lots of smaller ones! I always love how much garlic KITTENCAL includes in her recipes as I never have to think 'how much extra do I want to include?' I used freshly ground black pepper but not the cayenne pepper, and added grindings of rosemary and sage from a mini grinder, a blend which I'm finding so delicious and using in lots of recipes. We enjoyed these with tzatziki and salad. YUM: these are going to be made often, particularly when the weather's hot and having the oven on is the last thing you want to do! Thanks KITTENCAL for sharing another super recipe! Made for All New Zaar Cookbooks Tag.
