Can’t say I’ve ever had savoury pancakes before but it’s good to try things at least once! I think it would be interesting.

We do a lot of vegetable pancakes / pikelets at our house and my kids love them whether it’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner
I often use lentil or chickpea flour to give it a higher nutritional value, as self raising flour doesn’t contain much nutrition.

I went to an engagement party where there were savoury pikelets, I thought they must have made a mistake, but they were pretty yummy.
