Directions
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together first 10 ingredients (through crushed red pepper flakes).
  2. Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet or griddle with a little butter and oil; preheat over medium heat.
  3. Wipe skillet with a paper towel to coat pan evenly and absorb excess oil.
  4. Working in batches, scoop batter onto preheated skillet, forming 3-4" circles; cook until edges are set and dry and bottom of pancake is dark golden-brown (2-3 min.). Flip pancakes; cook until golden-brown on the other side (1-2 min.).
  5. Wipe skillet clean; regrease, wipe and repeat with remaining batter.
  6. Top pancakes with sour cream; garnish with herbs.

Tasty Tip:

  • Minnesota Grown products are fresher by miles, which is why we recommend them in this recipe. When local options are unavailable, fresh products grown or produced elsewhere may be used.
