Sweet Corn Pancakes with Sun-Dried Tomato Aioli


Sweet Corn Pancakes with Sun-Dried Tomato Aioli

We usually think of pancakes as being sweet and loaded with syrups and whipped cream or other sticky toppings, but a savory version is a nice alternative and turns them into something elegant you can serve for breakfast or brunch. The smooth sun-dried tomato aioli give this dish a sophistication that complements the sweet corn flavor perfectly. If you can use fresh corn, it gives this recipe a gorgeous summer vibe.

  • Ingredients:
  • Pancakes
  • 2 cups peaches & cream corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup fresh herbs such as cilantro or basil, chopped
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup Bisquick mix
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Salt & pepper taste
  • Olive oil
  • Sun-dried Tomato Aioli 
  • 1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, (drained if packed in oil)
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 garlic clove

directions:

Combine all ingredients for the aioli in a blender and process until smooth. Set aside to allow flavours to blend. Next combine the ingredients for the pancakes in a medium sized bowl. Grease a large pan or griddle with a little olive oil and using a spoon, drop 1/4 cup portions of the pancake mixture onto the griddle. Cook over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Flip over and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve with sun-dried tomato aioli.
