Pancake Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour, 2 large eggs, 300ml milk, 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil and a pinch of salt into a bowl or large jug, then whisk to a smooth batter.
• Set aside for 30 mins to rest if you have time, or start cooking straight away.
• Set a medium frying pan or crêpe pan over a medium heat and carefully wipe it with some oiled kitchen paper.
• When hot, cook your pancakes for 1 min on each side until golden, keeping them warm in a low oven as you go.
• Serve with lemon wedges and caster sugar, or your favourite filling. Once cold, you can layer the pancakes between baking parchment, then wrap in cling film and freeze for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl.
• Make a well in the centre and crack 2 eggs into the middle.
• Pour in about 50ml from the 300ml of semi-skimmed milk and 1 tbsp sunflower oil then start whisking from the centre, gradually drawing the flour into the eggs, milk and oil. Once all the flour is incorporated, beat until you have a smooth, thick paste. Add a little more milk if it is too stiff to beat.
• Add a good splash of milk and whisk to loosen the thick batter. While still whisking, pour in a steady stream of the remaining milk. Continue pouring and whisking until you have a batter that is the consistency of slightly thick single cream.
• Heat the pan over a moderate heat, then wipe it with oiled kitchen paper.
• Ladle some batter into the pan, tilting the pan to move the mixture around for a thin and even layer. Quickly pour any excess batter into the mixing bowl, return the pan to the heat.
• Leave to cook, undisturbed, for about 30 secs. If the pan is the right temperature, the pancake should turn golden underneath after about 30 secs and will be ready to turn.
• Hold the pan handle, ease a palette knife under the pancake, then quickly lift and flip it over. Make sure the pancake is lying flat against the base of the pan with no folds, then cook for another 30 secs before turning out onto a warm plate.
• Continue with the rest of the batter, serving them as you cook or stack onto a plate. You can freeze the pancakes for 1 month, wrapped in cling film or make them up to a day ahead.

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Combine the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and 2 teaspoons of the vanilla extract in a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or a medium bowl and whisk until incorporated. Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and gently whisk until combined, being careful not to overmix (small lumps are okay). Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place 2 cups of the berries in a medium bowl and mash with a fork until fairly smooth. Place the remaining 2 cups berries in another medium bowl, add 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup and gently toss to coat. Set the berries aside to macerate.
• When the batter is ready, heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 tablespoon butter and swirl the butter in the skillet as it melts to evenly distribute. Pour 1 cup of the batter into the center and cook until large bubbles begin to form on the surface of the batter and the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Carefully flip the pancake and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining butter and batter to make 4 more pancakes and allow all the pancakes to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, whip the cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed until smooth and light, about 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl and the whisk halfway through with a rubber spatula to ensure there are no lumps.
• Add the heavy cream, the remaining 4 tablespoons maple syrup and the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and whip on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Raise the speed to high and continue to whip until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes more.
• Assemble the cake by placing 1 pancake on the center of a serving plate. Using an offset or small spatula, evenly spread about 3/4 cup of the cream cheese mixture onto the pancake, followed by 1/4 cup of the mashed berry mixture, spreading both components all the way to the edges of the pancake.
• Top with another pancake and repeat the process with the remaining cream cheese mixture, mashed berry mixture and pancakes. Top with 3 to 4 tablespoons of the whole berries and a drizzle of their juices. Serve each slice with some of the remaining whole berries and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.

Steps:

• Beat egg until fluffy.
• Add milk and melted margarine.
• Add dry ingredients and mix well.
• Heat a heavy griddle or fry pan which is greased with a little butter on a paper towel.
• The pan is hot enough when a drop of water breaks into several smaller balls which 'dance' around the pan.
• Pour a small amount of batter (approx 1/4 cup) into pan and tip to spread out or spread with spoon.
• When bubbles appear on surface and begin to break, turn over and cook the other side.

Steps:

• For the cake: Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the blueberries and toss them gently in the flour mixture; this will help keep the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vanilla and eggs. Remove the skillet from the oven and add the oil and butter to the hot skillet. Let the butter melt completely, then pour the oil and butter into the buttermilk mixture and whisk together, fully incorporating the hot fats. Add the liquid mixture into the dry mixture and stir gently until combined and most lumps are gone. Pour the batter into the hot skillet. Bake until the cake is fluffy and golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle, 30 to 35 minutes.
• For the white pancake syrup: While the pancake cooks, add the corn syrup, vanilla and cinnamon to a small saucepan. Stir together and cook over low heat until the syrup is warm and pourable.
• Slice the warm pancake in wedges and serve with the white pancake syrup.

Steps:

• For the pancake batter: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F; place a dinner plate in the oven.
• Whisk together the water, milk, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and 1/4 cup melted butter in a large bowl until completely smooth. Do not overmix.
• Brush the surface of a nonstick pan set over medium heat with some of the remaining melted butter. Spoon 1/3 cup of the batter into the pan and tilt the pan so the pancake is thin and about 6 inches in diameter. Flip once it looks crispy on the edges and air holes appear in the center. Cook another minute until cooked through. Remove the pancake to the plate in the oven to keep warm. Continue making pancakes until all the batter is gone, brushing the pan with butter as needed. Pile the pancakes one on top of the other in an organized stack as you go. You should have about 10 total.
• For the sparkling strawberries: In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries and sugar and gently toss to coat. Pour the sparkling wine over the strawberries and let sit for 10 to 15 minutes in the refrigerator. Serve over the pancakes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and vanilla.
• Melt the butter in a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium heat.
• Whisk the butter into the milk mixture. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, and whisk until a thick batter is just formed.
• Keeping the skillet at medium heat, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, to make a pancake. Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to keep them evenly spaced apart. Cook, until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more on the second side. Serve immediately or transfer to a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
• Procedure for adding fruit to pancakes: Once the bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, scatter the surface with sliced or diced fruit, or chocolate chips, nuts, etc. Flip with a spatula and cook for 1 minute more, being careful not to burn toppings.

Steps:

• Beat together the milk and the eggs. Stir in the salt and the sugar and mix well. Add the baking soda and citric acid.
• Blend in the flour. Add the vegetable oil and pour in the boiling water, stirring constantly. The batter should be very thin, almost watery. Set the bowl aside and let it rest for 20 minutes.
• Melt a tablespoon of butter in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Pick the pan up off the heat. Pour in a ladleful of batter while you rotate your wrist, tilting the pan so the batter makes a circle and coats the bottom. The blini should be very thin.
• Return the pan to the heat. Cook the blini for 90 seconds. Carefully lift up an edge of the blini to see if it's fully cooked: the edges will be golden and it should have brown spots on the surface. Flip the blini over and cook the other side for 1 minute.
• Transfer the blini to a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel. Continue cooking the blini, adding an additional tablespoon of butter to the pan after each 4 blini. Stack them on top of each other and cover with the kitchen towel to keep warm.
• Spread your favorite filling in the center of the blini, and fold three times to make a triangle shape. You can also fold up all 4 sides, like a small burrito.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk to combine powdered sugar, 3 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Set aside. Add additional milk as necessary to reach a pourable consistency.
• In a large bowl, mix to combine cake mix, bisquick, and sprinkles.
• Add remaining 1 ½ cups milk, eggs, and remaining 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla. If desired, add rainbow confetti sprinkles. Mix until smooth.
• Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Make 8 cake "layers", pouring two each of the following measurements onto the griddle, in batches as necessary: ¾ cup, ½ cup, ¼ cup, and 2 tablespoons.
• Cook, flipping once, until pancakes are golden and cooked through, removing pancakes to a baking sheet or plate as they finish cooking.
• Stack layers, largest to smallest, on a cake stand or serving platter. Drizzle with reserved glaze and top with sprinkles.
• Cut into wedges and serve, passing any additional glaze on the side.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg and melted butter; mix until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

Steps:

• First, make the pancake batter. Tip the eggs, milk, flour and a pinch of salt into a blender and blitz until smooth. Alternatively, whisk the eggs and flour together until smooth, then slowly whisk in the milk and a pinch of salt, then tip into a large jug.
• Heat a roughly 20cm frying or crêpe pan over a medium heat, and, using kitchen paper, carefully wipe a little of the butter around the pan. Pour in enough batter to make a thin pancake, and cook for about 1 min on each side until golden. Slide the pancake onto a serving plate, then immediately spread with some of the peanut butter, then chocolate spread. Repeat with a second pancake, then stack this on top of the first. Continue cooking, spreading and stacking until all the batter, peanut butter and chocolate spread is used.
• When all the pancakes are stacked into a 'cake', dust the top with some icing sugar. Cut into wedges and serve topped with some squirty cream. Will keep at room temperature for up to a day.

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
• In another bowl combine eggs, milk and oil, whisk.
• Stir wet ingredients into dry, just until mixed, batter will be slightly lumpy.
• You can also added spices if you would like, I have used cinnamon and it was wonderful, or try pumpkin or apple pie spice for a real treat!
• The secret to these pancakes is to preheat your pan on a medium to low setting, this allows them to cook slower and rise higher.
• Pour 1/2 cup of batter at a time and flip when bubbles appear across top of pancake.
• Cook on other side until golden brown.
• Top with favorite toppings and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet or heatproof platter ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, butter (or oil), and egg. Add dry ingredients to milk mixture; whisk until just moistened (do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine).
• Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
• For each pancake, spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter onto skillet, using the back of the spoon to spread batter into a round (you should be able to fit 2 to 3 in a large skillet).
• Cook until surface of pancakes have some bubbles and a few have burst, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 12 to 15 pancakes.) Serve warm, with desired toppings.
• BUTTERMILK: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with low-fat buttermilk.
• YOGURT: In step 1, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda to dry mixture. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.
• WHOLE-GRAIN WITH YOGURT: In step 1, replace the all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup each cornmeal and wheat germ, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. In step 2, replace the milk with 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt and 1/3 cup milk.

Steps:

• To make the pancakes:
• In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rye flour, cornmeal, granulated and brown sugars, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, whole eggs, egg yolks, butter, and vanilla. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and fold in the wet just until moistened.
• Coat 8-inch skillet with some melted butter and heat over medium-low heat. Pour 1/2 cup of the batter into the pan and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, or until large bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake. Carefully flip the pancake over and cook for 1 minute longer, or until the underside is just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter to make 6 pancakes and let cool to room temperature.
• To make the filling:
• In a bowl, with and electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and yogurt until smooth. Beat in 4 tablespoons of the maple syrup and the confectioners' sugar until well combined.
• To assemble the cake:
• Spread each pancake with one-sixth of the filling (about 5 tablespoons). Place one of the pancakes on a platter and stack the remaining pancakes on top. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup over the top of the cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit.
• Prepare an 8"x8" pan with cooking spray.
• Melt butter and lightly sauté sugar, cinnamon and apples for 5 minutes. Spoon apples into baking pan.
• Beat egg whites until stiff. Set aside.
• Beat flour, baking powder, milk, salt, and egg yolks until smooth.
• Fold egg whites and batter together.
• Pour batter over apple slices.
• Bake at 400 degrees fahrenheit for about 10 to 12 minutes or until pancake is done.
• Serve immediately with maple syrup.
