Pannekoek are thin, crepe-like pancakes that are a beloved treat in South Africa. Traditionally served with cinnamon sugar, they can also be enjoyed with a variety of fillings such as fruit or jam. A perfect indulgence for breakfast or dessert!
Ingredients
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Let the batter rest for about 20-30 minutes to achieve a better texture.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add a little butter for frying.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot pan, swirling it around to cover the base evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges lift slightly and the bottom is golden brown.
Flip the pannekoek with a spatula and cook for another minute on the other side until lightly browned.
Remove and keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon.
To serve, sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture on top of each pannekoek and roll them up. Optionally, drizzle with syrup or serve with fruit jam.
Conclusion
Tips:Try filling the pannekoek with sliced bananas, strawberries, or Nutella for a delicious variation! Pannekoek can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for later use. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave before serving. Enjoy these delightful South African pancakes anytime!
