No frying, same flexibility: the most typical sweet of the American tradition revisited in a light key (and proof of novice chefs). To be enjoyed at all hours, sweet or savory
The secret of the pancake is hidden in its ability to constantly reinvent itself. Throughout his long history he has always found new forms to make people talk about him and renew his undying fame. So many variations on the subject that concern not only the type of ingredients used or the filling from support you, but every element of its preparation: even the type of cooking. As the version demonstrates baked, or baked, recently established, compared to the classic pan cooking. Almost an oxymoron if we consider the etymology of its name that comes from the words "Pan" (pan) + "Cake" (cake). Yet despite the contradiction in terms, baked pancakes are literally depopulated.
Greediness at your laziness
What are the advantages of preparing baked pancakes is not so difficult to imagine. First of all, you save yourself a "fry" and everything that goes with it in terms of diet and fatigue. Secondly, using baking pans or cake tins, there is no need to waste time preparing the pancakes one by one. For baked pancakes just pour the mixture into the chosen container and wait for the cooking time for then cut out the individual portions in the aftermath. In other words, laziness will no longer be an acceptable excuse for not preparing pancakes at home.
Baked pancakes: how to prepare them
The preparation does not differ from the classic recipe. You need to lightly beat the eggs with the sugar and then add the oil and milk. Once all together, the sifted flour is added, being careful not to form lumps, until you get a batter that is not too thick. At this point, the mixture – properly placed in a baking dish (or in the cake tins) – should be placed in a 200 degree electric oven. The cooking time is approx 20 minutes, but the most reliable judge will be the eye, because the pancake is ready to serve must indeed be swollen and golden.
Different means for the same purpose
Don't deceive the different preparation. Even if prepared in the oven and therefore, at least at a theoretical level, lighter, the Baked Pancake retains all the characteristics of its illustrious progenitor. It is therefore ductile and good for every occasion: from breakfast in the early morning to the typical Sunday brunch. It also goes well with sweet and savory. Ideally born to drown in it Maple syrup, but perfect with any type of filling: jams, ice cream, fruit, and so on and so forth.
