  2. Add flour, shallots, garlic, parsley, chives, eggs, cheese and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and spray oil to cover pan.
  4. Drop tablespoons of the batter into the skillet. Cook about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Set aside and keep warm.
  5. Spray more oil in the skillet as needed, and continue with remaining batter. Makes about 10 to 12 pancakes.
