Rich-tasting yet light, this Brie pancake is a versatile dish. We have especially enjoyed it, in both its sweet and savory versions, as an unusual Sunday breakfast. From the book American Country Cheese (originally from Besnier America cheese company).

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 eggs
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 ounces brie cheese, thinly sliced (rind removed)
salt (optional)
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup minced chives
cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375F degrees.
  • Mix the eggs, milk, flour, Brie, and salt in a food processor or blender for approximately 10 seconds. Put the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof omelet pan and place it in the hot oven. Remove it from the oven when the pan is very hot and the butter is bubbling and just beginning to brown.
  • Quickly pour the egg mixture into the pan and return it to the oven immediately. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. The sides of the pancake will rise above the pan and the pancake will be solid, crisp, and lightly browned.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with minced chives and sprinkled with cayenne.
  • To make a sweet version, omit the chives and cayenne. Instead, serve the pancake with fresh fruit, jam, or a fruit puree.

CLASSIC MATZO BREI



Classic Matzo Brei image

In this matzo brei (rhymes with fry) recipe, the matzo sheets are browned in butter until crisp before being lightly scrambled with eggs. You make this either sweet or savory as you prefer. Add black pepper, plenty of salt and chives for a savory version, or Demerara sugar and maple syrup or honey if you would like something sweeter. It's a fine breakfast or brunch any time of the year, and especially during Passover.

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sheets matzo
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 large eggs, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Large pinch fine sea salt, more to taste
Large pinch black pepper
Chopped chives, for serving
1 tablespoon Demerara sugar, more to taste
Honey or maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Under cool running water, rinse matzo sheets until they are quite wet. Set it aside and let sit to soften while you prepare the pan.
  • Place a large, preferably nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add butter. Once it melts and the foam subsides, break matzo sheets into bite-size pieces and add to pan. Sauté matzo in butter until it browns all over, about 2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, salt and pepper (if you're making the dish savory) to pan and scramble the mixture until it is just set but still light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with sugar (if you're making it sweet) and toss well.
  • Serve matzo brei sprinkled with salt and topped with chives (savory), or with salt, additional sugar and maple syrup (sweet).

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a good quality brie cheese. Brie de Meaux or Brie de Melun are both excellent choices.
  • If you don't have a crepe pan, you can use a regular frying pan. Just make sure to heat it over medium heat so that the pancakes don't burn.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pancakes. They should be cooked through but still slightly gooey in the center.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include honey, maple syrup, fruit, and nuts.

Conclusion:

Brie pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. Whether you're serving them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, they're sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy brie cheese, give these pancakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
