Savory Smash Burger Pancakes Recipe (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Pancake Batter

01 - 1 egg, separated
02 - 75g plain flour
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 1 tablespoon caster sugar
05 - 100ml milk

→ Burger Components

06 - 250g 15%-fat beef mince
07 - 2 slices American cheese or mild cheddar
08 - 30ml burger sauce
09 - 40g sliced gherkins
10 - 1 tablespoon neutral-tasting oil

# Instructions:

01 - Get your electric whisk going and beat that egg white until you've got soft, fluffy peaks.
02 - In another bowl, mix your egg yolk with the flour, baking powder, and sugar. Pour in the milk bit by bit, whisking until you've got a smooth paste. Then gently fold in those fluffy egg whites you made earlier.
03 - Heat up some oil in your non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour in a quarter of your batter and let it cook for 2-3 minutes each side until you see those nice golden edges. Keep going until you've got four pancakes, and pop them in a warm oven to stay toasty.
04 - Crank up the heat and add a bit more oil to your pan. Split your beef into two balls, drop one in, and smash it down flat with your spatula. Let it get nice and crispy for 2-3 minutes, flip it, top with cheese, and give it another minute or two.
05 - Time to build your burger pancakes! Start with a pancake, add your cheesy patty, drizzle with burger sauce, layer on some gherkins, and top with another pancake. Repeat for your second burger.

# Notes:

01 - Perfect fusion of breakfast and burger flavors
02 - Customize with your favorite burger toppings
03 - Can be made vegetarian with mushroom or veggie patties
