Silver Dollar Tropical Pancakes With Mascarpone Whipped Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with two kitchen towels stacked on top of each other and place in the oven. This will keep your cooked pancakes warm.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, cloves, ginger and allspice together in a large bowl. Whisk the milk, eggs and pumpkin puree together in another bowl. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until ingredients are just incorporated and batter is thick (it's okay if there are some lumps). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whip the heavy cream and nutmeg until stiff peaks form. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Ladle a heaping 1/2 cup of the batter into the skillet, spreading it into a 6-inch round. Cook, until pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, about 1 minute 30 seconds. Flip the pancakes and cook until the second side is golden brown and the pancake is cooked through, about 1 minute 30 seconds more. The first few pancakes may seem sticky and hard to flip, but the pancakes will become easier to flip as you cook more of them.
• Transfer the pancake to the baking sheet in the oven, tucking it between the two kitchen towels. Repeat with the remaining batter to make more pancakes.
• Place 3 pancakes on each plate and garnish with nutmeg whipped cream and pumpkin seeds. Serve with maple syrup.

Steps:

• Blend sour cream, flour, eggs, sugar, salt, and baking soda together with a whisk until smooth.
• Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with butter. Drop batter 2 tablespoons at a time onto griddle, leaving plenty of space for spreading. Fry until bubbles form and break on the pancake's surface and bottoms are browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until until browned on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, granulated and brown sugars, the baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, butter and vanilla in a small bowl. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and gently mix to combine. Do not overmix. Let sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes before using.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Heat a cast-iron or nonstick griddle pan over medium heat and brush with melted butter. Once the butter begins to sizzle, use 2 tablespoons of the batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip over and cook until the bottom is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes longer. If desired, keep warm on a baking sheet in the oven.
• Serve a stack of 6 pancakes per person, topped with some of the Pineapple-Mango Syrup and Mascarpone Whipped Cream. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs, if desired.
• Combine 2 cups chopped mango, 2 cups chopped pineapple, the sugar and 2 cups water in a large saucepan, bring to a boil over high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is very soft, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and, using an immersion blender, blend until almost smooth. Add the honey and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Strain the mixture into a bowl and add the finely diced mango and pineapple, the orange zest and lemon juice to taste. Keep warm while making the pancakes.
• Combine the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and 1/2 cup cream in a medium bowl and whip until soft peaks form; add a bit more heavy cream if not creamy enough. Put in a pastry bag with medium tip.
