Pancake Lasagna For One Or More Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Process cottage cheese in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add to beef with tomato paste, water and seasonings; set aside. , In a bowl, beat the eggs, milk, flour and salt. Pour 1/3 cup batter into a greased 9-in. skillet, tilting to cover the bottom of the pan. When set and lightly browned, flip the pancake to brown the other side. Remove from pan and place on paper towel; repeat with remaining batter. , Place 1 pancake in 10-in. pie plate. Spread with one-fourth of the meat mixture, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese and 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers with remaining pancakes and ingredients, ending with the cheeses. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until heated through. Serve with remaining Parmesan.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the pancakes: Mix the buttermilk, milk, melted butter and eggs in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, white sugar, baking powder and baking soda. Slowly whisk the dry mix into the wet mix with a whisk until incorporated.
• In a buttered large skillet, ladle 8 ounces of batter at a time. Brown each side, flipping when browned and beginning to bubble. Remove the pancake and continue to cook until all the batter is done. Square off the edges of each pancake and set aside.
• For the bacon and sausage: Place a grill rack over a baking tray. Line the rack with the bacon strips and bake until crispy, about 15 minutes. Reserve the rendered grease in a large saucepot.
• Line a baking tray with the sausage links and bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Chop the sausage finely, add the chopped sage and mix.
• For the eggs: Whisk the eggs until smooth. Cook in a buttered large skillet over medium heat until cooked through. Place in a blender and add enough cream until blended smoothly. Remove and let cool.
• For the maple bechamel: Add the butter and flour to the reserved bacon fat in the large saucepot and make a roux. Add the cream and maple syrup and cook over low heat, stirring until thickened, about 30 minutes. The sauce should have the consistency of gravy.
• To assemble: Butter a casserole dish, and line the bottom with a single layer of pancakes. Lightly spread the bechamel over the pancakes until covered. Place the chopped sausage on top of the pancakes, spreading evenly until covered. Spoon half the egg mixture over the sausage and spread until evenly dispersed. Add another layer of the bechamel, and then add a layer of shredded cheese. Add another layer of pancakes, then bechamel, then bacon strips, bechamel again, then eggs and finish with a liberal covering of cheese. Bake until the cheese has melted on top and begun to get crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Then cut portions of lasagna.
• Place a portion of lasagna on the plate and spoon the syrup over the top to taste.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Whisk eggs in medium bowl until blended. Stir in sour cream, pepper and 1/2 cup cheese; pour into large nonstick skillet. Cook on medium heat 3 to 4 min. or just until eggs start to set, stirring occasionally. (Do not cook until completely set.)
• Place 4 pancakes in single layer on bottom of 8-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; drizzle with 1/4 cup syrup. Top with layers of half each of the eggs, bacon and remaining cheese. Repeat all layers; cover.
• Bake 25 to 30 min. or until heated through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Set out 4 small, shallow, oven-proof baking dishes or ramekins.
• Combine eggs, salt, olive oil, water, and flour for pancakes in a large bowl. Whisk thoroughly until very smooth, then let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• Brush oil into a nonstick skillet and set heat to medium. When the skillet is hot, add about 1/4 cup batter and tilt the pan so it evenly coats the bottom. Cook until the batter sets and the top surface goes from looking wet to dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and repeat to make remaining 3 pancakes. Cut each pancake into 3 triangles.
• Combine ricotta cheese, salt, pepper, cayenne, basil, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for filling in a bowl; mix with a fork until thoroughly combined.
• Prepare lasagnas: Spread 2 tablespoons marinara sauce into the bottom of each baking dish. Lay 1 pancake triangle on the sauce, then top with about 2 tablespoons ricotta filling, 1 tablespoon Monterey Jack cheese, and 2 teaspoons marinara. Repeat to create another layer, slightly pressing down on the second pancake triangle before topping with filling and cheese. Top with the remaining pancake triangle, pressing down slightly. Add remaining marinara and Monterey Jack, sprinkle with Parmigiano-Reggiano, and drizzle with olive oil.
• Place the baking dishes on a large sheet pan and bake in the center of the preheated oven until lightly browned and bubbly, about 15 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes, then garnish with basil and serve.
