- Mix all the ingredients together into a food processor or a blender, just keep the cheese and the water on the side for later.
- Blend the ingredients. During the process, add 1/2 cup of water.
- After blending, put a pan on medium to high heat, place some butter or coconut oil on it.
- When the pan is hot enough, spread two ladles of the pancakes mix on it, and fry it until a crust is formed. After the crust is on the bottom side, make sure the pancake does not stick to the pan and flip it over.
- When the pancake is golden to brown on both sides, place on the side, put some cheese slides on top and make another pancake.
- When the second pancake is ready, place it on top of the cheese.
- Enjoy these beautiful corn pancakes!
