Decoration Tips:
Serve these pancakes with a dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of maple syrup, or fresh fruit for an added touch of elegance. You can also add a dollop of whipped cream or some crushed hazelnuts for extra texture and flavor.
Ingredients (for 10 pancakes):
- 1 large egg
- 1 packet of baking powder (about 11g)
- 150g all-purpose flour
- 170g milk
- 25g unsalted butter, melted
- 25g granulated sugar
- Nutella (or other hazelnut spread) for filling
Instructions:
- Prepare the Nutella Filling:
Scoop small dollops of Nutella onto a sheet of parchment paper and place them in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes. This will make it easier to stuff the pancakes later. - Mix the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and sugar until smooth. Add the melted butter and milk, and continue whisking until fully combined. - Add Dry Ingredients:
Sift the flour and baking powder into the wet mixture. Gently whisk until the batter is smooth, but be careful not to overmix. - Cook the Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan if needed. Pour a small amount of pancake batter into the pan to form the base of the pancake. Quickly place a frozen Nutella dollop in the center, then pour a little more batter over the top to fully cover the Nutella. - Flip and Finish Cooking:
Cook the pancake for about 2-3 minutes on one side, then carefully flip it and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and the pancake is cooked through. - Serve:
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of syrup. Enjoy the delicious Nutella-filled surprise in every bite!
Tips:
- Freezing the Nutella beforehand helps prevent it from spreading too much during cooking, ensuring a nice, gooey center.
- For an extra fluffy texture, allow the pancake batter to rest for 10 minutes before cooking.
Enjoy your ultra-fluffy, Nutella-stuffed pancakes!
