Best 3 Ham And Cheese Griddle Cakes Recipes

HAM AND CHEESE GALETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the artichoke hearts in a single layer and cook, turning, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Scatter the leek, ham and broccoli on top and cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Unroll the pie dough on the prepared pan and gently flatten any curled edges. Spread the mustard on the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Top with half the gruyere, then the vegetable mixture, then the remaining gruyere. Fold in the edges of the dough, pleating as needed. Lightly brush the crust with olive oil and sprinkle with pepper. Bake until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese melts, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the radishes and combine in a large bowl with the mixed greens, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss. Serve the galette with the salad.

HAM AND CHEESE GRIDDLE CAKES

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients in large bowl to blend. Whisk buttermilk, egg yolks and 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter in medium bowl to blend. Whisk into dry ingredients. Mix in cheese and ham. Beat egg whites in another bowl to stiff peaks. Fold whites into batter in 2 additions.
• Heat 1 tablespoon melted butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, pour batter into skillet by 1/4 cupfuls. Cook until cakes are puffed and golden, adding more butter skillet for each batch if necessary, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plates. Serve with maple syrup.

CORN AND CHEESE GRIDDLE CAKES (AREPAS)

Steps:

• Put the cornmeal and salt in a food processor and process until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the cheese and butter.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until almost boiling. Gradually stir enough of the milk into the cornmeal mixture to make a very thick batter. Stir in the corn.
• Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and set over medium heat. Drop half of the cornmeal mixture, 1 heaping tablespoon at a time, in 6 mounds in the skillet. Flatten slightly and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Spray the griddle cakes with nonstick spray and turn. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes, transferring them to a platter when they are done; keep warm. Repeat with the remaining cornmeal mixture to make a total of 12 griddle cakes. Serve with Pico de Gallo, if using.
