Lemon Syrup Pancake Stack Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine the egg, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until combined. Pour batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of the pancake; cook until second side is golden brown., Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine syrup ingredients. Cook until sugar is dissolved. Serve with pancakes.

Steps:

• For the ricotta pancakes: Whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl. Whisk in the milk, egg, and zest until incorporated. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the ricotta.
• Preheat a large, well-seasoned cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add enough butter just to coat. When a drop of water thrown into the skillet bounces across the surface vigorously, add heaping tablespoon-sized dollops of batter, allowing enough room between each for them to spread slightly. Cook until the bubbles begin to pop and hollow out on the surface of the pancakes, adjusting the heat as necessary, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for about 1 minute more.
• Serve with Lemon Syrup.
• In a small saucepan, add the sugar, water, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt.
• Bring to a boil and then simmer for 10 minutes. Let cool and strain.

Steps:

• Whisk all of the pancake ingredients together in a large bowl until smooth.
• Put a small knob of butter in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat and cook until melted and foaming. Pour 2 tbsp of the mixture into the pan and use the back of the spoon to shape into a 8-9cm round disc. Depending on the size of your pan you may be able to get 2 or 3 pancakes to cook at the same time. Cook for 2-3 mins on the first side, then flip over and cook for another 1 min on the other.
• Heat oven to its lowest setting. Stack the cooked pancakes on a baking tray and keep them warm in the oven while you cook the rest.
• Softly beat the double cream with the icing sugar using a whisk, then fold in half of the lemon curd. Mix the remaining curd with enough lemon juice to make it a drizzling consistency.
• To serve, stack the pancakes with layers of the whipped cream in between them, drizzle with lemon curd, and scatter with lemon zest to serve.

Steps:

• Combine the ricotta, egg yolks and milk in a bowl. In a second bowl, whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. Add the flour, baking powder, lemon zest and juice and a large pinch of salt to the ricotta mixture, then stir in a small spoonful of the egg whites. Fold in the remaining egg whites in batches using a large metal spoon until there are no big lumps (there should be a few smaller lumps of egg whites visible).
• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add a couple of heaped tablespoons of the batter, carefully spreading it into a circle using the back of the spoon. Cook for 2-3 mins on each side until golden, transferring them to a plate and covering with a tea towel to keep warm as you go.
• To make the blueberry maple syrup, tip the blueberries and maple syrup into a small pan and warm gently over a low heat until the blueberries have completely burst, around 8-10 mins. Serve the pancakes in small stacks drizzled with the blueberry syrup.
