Maybe I found the right recipe to prepare my perfect pancakes, which I've been trying to do for a while .
They should be soft, not too sweet, and can be stored in the freezer.
Here it is!
PANCAKE
STORABLE IN FREEZER
Total time: 20 minutes
Ingredients for 6-7 pancakes of 20cm diameter
1 Egg
35 g of Sugar
16 g of Mayonnaise
160 g (155 ml) of Milk
Vanilla extract
130 g of 00 flour (or Pastry flour)
0.5 teaspoon of Baking powder
Method
1. In a bowl break the egg and add the sugar and mayonnaise
2. Add also the milk and the vanilla and mix well with a whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved
3. Begin to heat a pan with medium heat
4. Sift the flour and the baking powder into the bowl
5. Roughly mix all with a whip
CAUTION!!
The batter should be neither smooth nor homogeneous.
It must have some lumps.
Otherwise, the pancakes will be thin and rubbery.
6. Check that the pan is hot enough (should be about 200°C) then lower the heat to the minimun
7. Pour the batter from high (such as 15-20 cm from the surface of the pan)
(I know. This pan is not so nice to look, like many others of my equipments. But I feel good with this to cook the pancakes)
9. Turn them
10. Wait 2 minutes and the pancakes are ready!
What I like is that you can eat them with toppings either sweet or savory:
with butter and cinnamon sugar
with bitter orange marmalade
with gorgonzola, mascarpone, bacon and walnuts
Tomorrow I will tell you how you can freeze them.
