Pancakes



Reguler flufy pancakes

Ingredients:

2 cups all purpose plain flour, (290 g 10 oz) 1/4 cup granulated sugar or sweetener, (60g 2 oz) 4 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 3/4 cups milk, (440ml) 1/4 cup butter, (60g 2 oz) 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 1 large egg


Steps:

1. Combine together the flour, sugar (or sweetener), baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large-sized bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, slightly cooled melted butter, vanilla and egg.

2. Use a wire whisk to whisk the wet ingredients together first before slowly folding them into the dry ingredients. Mix together until smooth (there may be a couple of lumps but that's okay). (The batter will be thick and creamy in consistency. If you find the batter too thick -- doesn't pour off the ladle or out of the measuring cup smoothly -- fold a couple tablespoons of extra milk into the batter at a time until reaching desired consistency).

3. Set the batter aside and allow to rest while heating up your pan or griddle.

4. Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over low-medium heat and wipe over with a little butter to lightly grease pan. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the pan and spread out gently into a round shape with the back of your ladle or measuring cup.

5. When the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip with a spatula and cook until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:

Step 1: In a large bowl, mix together yolks and sugar, while still whisking, add milk Carefully fold in whipped egg whites.
NOTE: It's better to use a spoon rather than a whisk. Add and mix the melted butter and the vanilla.

Step 2: In another large bowl, mix the sieved flour, cocoa powder, and the baking powder. Form a little well in the middle and pour the milk and eggs mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth. Mix in the chopped chocolate. Let the batter sit for 15-20 minutes.

Step 3: To make the ganache, in a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, without letting it boil. Take off the heat, mix with the chocolate chips until perfectly smooth.

Step 4: Over low to medium heat, pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of pancake batter on a well-oiled pan. When bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake, flip and cook it for a minute on the other side.

Step 5: When the pancakes are ready, pour the chocolate ganache on top.
