For the ultimate comfort food, you can’t go wrong with pancakes. They’re a favorite with kids and adults alike, easy to make, and incredibly versatile. You can make so many unexpected things out of pancake batter, and when it comes to the “regular” recipe, almost any additional ingredient will taste delicious, like chocolate chips, bananas, blueberries, or even savory veggies. But what if you can’t decide? The logical next step is to explore the harmony of sweet and savory. For an easy, utterly delicious twist on the average pancake, make Feta and Honey Pancakes. You deserve it.

Salty, tangy feta cheese and sweet, floral honey are a classic duo. I first saw this idea pop up on my Instagram feed (apologies, I can’t remember the account and the post got gobbled up by The Void), and the pancake batter-covered block of grilled cheese was so tempting that I was immediately excited about the idea.

The additions are what make these pancakes shine, so you can use any pancake recipe you like: pre-made mix, ready-made, or gluten-free. My only suggestion is to reduce the amount of liquid slightly so that you get a thick batter.

Thin pancake batter will drip out and leave the cheese chunks sticking out. This isn’t the end of the world, but I prefer a thick pancake for the cheese to nestle into. I used a store-bought pancake mix and subtracted ¼ cup of water from their recommended cup of water. Prepare your batter and have it ready by the pancake pan.
