Ingredients

8 slices Bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1/3 cup Onion, finely chopped

1 cup Western Family All-purpose flour

2 tbsp Western Family Chives, finely chopped

1 tsp Baking powder

1/2 tsp Kosher salt

1 pinch of Cayenne pepper

2/3 cup Milk

1 large Egg, beaten

1 tbsp Canola oil

1 cup Corn, frozen or fresh

1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

1/2 cup Maple syrup, warmed for serving

Directions

 

1. In a medium skillet, cook the bacon pieces until they begin to brown then add the onion. Cook until the bacon is crisp and the onion is softened about 3 minutes. Scoop out two tablespoons of the bacon mixture for topping the griddle cakes and set it aside.
2. While the bacon is cooking, whisk together the flour, chives, baking powder, salt and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in the milk, egg and oil, just until moistened. Fold in the bacon mixture, corn and cheese. The mixture will be thick and you can thin it a bit with more milk if needed.
3. Heat and grease a griddle or large skillet. Pour a heaping 1/4-cup of the batter onto the griddle and cook until it is golden brown- 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining batter.
4. Serve stacks of griddle cakes topped with a sprinkle of the reserved bacon/onion and a good dose of warm maple syrup.
