But what we haven’t cooked yet is pancake cake. What would a holiday be without such a treat? It should definitely show off on the holiday table. Moreover, preparing it will not be difficult at all. If you know how to bake pancakes, then coming up with a filling, preparing the cream and decorating it will not be so difficult.

Spinach pancake cake

Such cakes can be different, but they are mainly divided into two categories - sweet and savory. It is clear that sweet ones are prepared with the addition of some kind of cream or condensed milk, fruits and berries, and savory ones are prepared with the addition of meat, chicken, mushrooms... you can’t list everything.

Let’s think today about what kind of cake we would like to bake for the holiday table. I want to offer you several recipes to choose from. I hope that you will like them and you will be able to choose an option for yourself.

And the first recipe will be a truly festive version, both in content and design.

Chocolate pancake desserts are not only attractive in appearance, but also delicious in themselves. People with a sweet tooth are especially partial to them, loving notes of cocoa in desserts.


This is exactly the recipe that we will consider today in our review.

For pancakes we need:

  • milk at least 3.5% - 650 ml
  • flour - 240 gr
  • powdered sugar - 90 g
  • cocoa powder – 4 teaspoons
  • egg - 4 pcs (large)
  • butter - 50 g
  • vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
  • or vanilla sugar - 1 sachet
  • salt - a pinch

For cream and filling:

  • cream 33 -35% - 600 ml
  • powdered sugar - 100 g
  • chocolate cookies – 200 gr

Preparation:

We will cook in two stages, first we will knead the dough and bake the pancakes, and then we will prepare the cream and decorate the cake. Let's start with them. Although we have already baked quite a lot, and all sorts of different ones. But we haven’t baked these yet, so let’s look at the recipe in more detail.

1. Sift the flour into a large bowl convenient for kneading the dough. Sift cocoa there and add a pinch of salt. Although this is a sweet pastry, a little salt would be nice for flavor.


2. Add powdered sugar. Why not sugar? Yes, everything is very simple, the powder will dissolve faster in the dough. Mix all dry ingredients into a combined mass.

3. Beat in the eggs one at a time. It is best to take them out in advance so that they sit at room temperature for a while and are not too cold. Mix all the eggs with the dry mixture.


4. Slowly add milk in a thin stream. It is also better to have it slightly warm, or at room temperature. In order for the dough to spread better and the pancakes to turn out light and tender, this is exactly what needs to be done. Add vanilla extract or vanilla sugar for taste and aroma.

5. Melt the butter in the microwave or better in a water bath and add it to the dough. Mix.

To avoid confusion about what to add when, the diagram is very simple. First, mix all the dry ingredients. And then we mix in the liquid ones. This way the dry ingredients will mix better and there will be no lumps in the dough. And this is important so that they are not left at all.

If in doubt, you can strain the dough through a fine sieve. Then there certainly won't be any left. If there are lumps, they will all remain on the surface of the sieve.

6. The dough must be allowed to stand and swell. Therefore, cover it with cling film, in which you do not forget to make several punctures with a knife so that it can breathe. And leave it like this on the table for 30 minutes.


7. After 30 minutes, bake the pancakes on both sides in a greased frying pan. Select the size of the pan according to the size of the cake you want to get.


I use a large frying pan with a diameter of 28 cm, but you can use a smaller frying pan. In this case, the cake will turn out taller.


8. Place the finished pancakes in a stack; they turn out beautiful, slightly glossy, and smell delicious. But they turned out to have not quite smooth and slightly dried edges.


Therefore, we take a flat plate of smaller diameter, place it on top of each pancake, and cut off the uneven edges. In this case, all the cakes will be the same even size and the cake will look like a real one.


9. We will also need chocolate chips, which we will get from cookies. Place the cookies in a blender bowl and beat them into a fine powder mixture.


10.Now you can prepare the whipped cream. In order to beat them well, they must first be thoroughly cooled. In general, in one of my articles I already described in detail. Therefore, I will not repeat myself here so as not to take up your time. And if you have never churned cream, you can go to this article and read it.

Here I will only say that be sure to cool the cream in the refrigerator along with the container in which you will churn, otherwise you will not be able to churn it.

11. Add powdered sugar to the cream and mix at high speed with a mixer until light, stable peaks form. But don’t try to “interrupt” them, otherwise they will lose all their airiness and tenderness.


In this case, any cream can be used - custard, sour cream, or with condensed milk.

12. Now all that remains is to assemble it. Prepare a large flat plate and place the first pancake crust on it. Cover it with a layer of whipped cream. They come together well and spread with a knife like butter on bread.


13. We have greased the layer, now you need to sprinkle it with cookie crumbs. Then add the second pancake, again the cream, and again the crumbs. Repeat layers until all ingredients are gone.


14. Be sure to coat the side walls and top of the product.


Then decorate at your discretion. In the summer I decorate it with fresh berries - strawberries, raspberries, blackberries or blueberries. And in winter you can decorate with chocolate chips, or the same cookie crumbs, or just halves of chocolate chip cookies.


15. Place the cake in the refrigerator to cool for 1 hour. Then it can be served to the table.

Cut it carefully and carefully with a very sharp knife. It turned out to be very tender, so it is important not to crush it. In general, look at the cut, how beautiful it turned out. And not only beautiful, but also very tasty. Just lick your fingers!

Sometimes they can’t even guess that it’s made from pancakes. It is so good both externally and internally, and its content is also excellent!


So be sure to prepare this delicacy during the holidays, and everyone will be very pleased with this treat!

And the next recipe will be prepared from ordinary pancakes. Although it also turns out very tasty from chocolate ones.

Homemade pancake cake with curd cream

Curd cream is also an excellent layer between thin pancakes. For many, the combination of pancakes + cottage cheese is inseparable.


Therefore, even today we cannot ignore such preparation.

For pancakes we need:

  • milk - 200 ml
  • water - 200 ml
  • egg - 2 pcs
  • sugar - 2 tbsp. spoons
  • vanilla sugar - 1 teaspoon
  • flour - 250 gr
  • baking powder - 1 teaspoon
  • salt - a pinch
  • vegetable oil - for frying

For the curd cream:

  • cottage cheese - 200 gr
  • cream 33% fat - 250 ml
  • sugar - 100 gr
  • vanilla sugar - 1 teaspoon

Preparation:

1. Knead the pancake dough by mixing all the ingredients. You can see how to do this in the recipes given in the links above. You can take any suitable recipe from them.

2. Let the dough stand and swell for 20-30 minutes. Then bake them in a greased frying pan on both sides. The diameter of the pan is approximately 20 cm.

3. While the pancakes are cooling, prepare the curd cream. To do this, grind the cottage cheese so that there are no grains left in it. This can be done using a blender, carefully punching the curd until the graininess disappears, or grind through a sieve.


You can grind it using a tablespoon. It turns out that this is not very fast, but the result is quite achievable.


4. Add sugar and blend everything together until smooth and creamy.


5. Whip the cream. For good churning you will need cream with a fat content of 33 - 35%, always fresh. Before churning, they need to be cooled in the refrigerator for two hours, preferably together with the container in which you will work with them.

You need to whip the cream until it reaches soft, stable peaks. As soon as you have achieved the desired state, immediately stop whipping, otherwise you can overdo it and the whipped cream will lose its airiness and become just like a white lump.


6. Combine both masses, carefully transfer the whipped cream into the curd mixture and mix with a spatula, simply moving the layers from bottom to top.

For a fresher aroma and taste, you can add the juice of one lemon to the cream.

7. Cooled pancakes can be pre-cut by placing a slightly smaller plate on them. This way they will become smooth and neat, and more like cakes.

8. Place the first pancake and cover it with a thin layer of curd cream. Then place another pancake on top, which is also greased. And so on until they are all over.

Be sure to coat the side walls. Use a knife with a large blade for this.

9. Place cream on top and decorate to your liking. You can sprinkle with chopped chocolate, cookie crumbs, cocoa powder. In summer, decorate with fresh berries or fruits.


This cake turns out very tender and airy, and incredibly tasty. Both adults and children love him.

In this recipe we have prepared curd cream with cream. Or you can cook it with sour cream or even yogurt. It is also prepared with condensed milk and butter. It is made jelly-like using gelatin. And all this diversity gives a magnificent delicate taste and a decent appearance!


However, if you want to prepare a simpler recipe, you can prepare not the cream, but simply the curd filling. For filling you can use:

  • cottage cheese - 400 gr
  • thick jam or jam - 400 g
  • vanilla sugar - 1 tbsp. spoon

This filling is easy to prepare. Beat the cottage cheese in a blender along with sugar and vanilla sugar until a creamy mass is obtained. Add any thick jam, for example, I usually add it, since I prepare it for the winter.

Mix everything thoroughly and lay out in layers, alternating pancakes with filling. Place the final layer of filling and decorate to your liking.

This is such an everyday option, but even though it’s for every day, that doesn’t make it any less delicious!

These are such interesting and delicious recipes!

Video on how to make a delicious spinach pancake cake with sour cream

In the past, when I made cakes, I usually always made them quite simple. You bake pancakes, prepare a sweet or savory filling, coat all the pancakes with it and that’s it - a delicious treat is ready!

But then suddenly I wanted to “get creative” a little. And then the idea came to make a finished dessert that truly lived up to its name. I wanted to make something very beautiful, and then I came to bake spinach pancakes. And this is what happened in the end. Friends, please take a look!

I prepared it for the arrival of guests and I managed to impress them.

Well, what do you say? Amazing, isn't it? I immediately want to try to cook it. But despite such magnificence, it is not at all difficult to prepare. And the composition of the products is so simple and accessible that it will not be difficult for anyone to purchase them.

Just imagine that you will prepare it for Maslenitsa. This will create a sensation among guests or your family. You will please everyone, you will please them, and you will also surprise everyone. I will definitely be making this cake this holiday week. And you?

What other sweet pancake cakes can you make?

Using these recipes as an example, you can see that sweet pancake cakes can be prepared either with cream alone or using some kind of sweet filling. It can be fruit, berry, curd. The cream can be prepared from regular or boiled condensed milk, whipped cream, as we did, it can be custard and sour cream.

And if it is possible to prepare it with mascarpone cheese, then it will be absolutely incomparable!

That is, absolutely the entire arsenal that we use to prepare ordinary cakes can be used. And as we saw in the video, all this variety can create magnificent culinary masterpieces.

I think that there is absolutely no point in giving more recipes that repeat those already presented. Because if you turn on your imagination and apply your existing knowledge, you can prepare no less interesting options, and no less interesting to decorate them.

Here are just a few design ideas presented in photographs.

This cake is made from small thick chocolate pancakes called . The cream used is sour cream or cream with whipped cream. Decorated with chocolate icing and strawberries.


And this one is also prepared with whipped cream, and even berries.


The next option is made according to the same principle and uses cherries as a filling. On top it can be covered with any cream, for example custard, and decorated with chocolate glaze.


This is just a small part of what can be prepared with pancakes as a crust. Now that we have so many ideas, we can easily prepare any option.

Therefore, now I suggest moving on to unsweetened cakes. They can also be called pies, which also will not contradict the essence of this dish. The difference is that they can be eaten as a cold appetizer, hence the name “snack cake,” but the pie is baked in the oven and is tastier when eaten hot.

And this is the one I propose to prepare first. It turns out to be very tasty.

How to prepare a snack cake with mushrooms and fish with a sour cream layer

This is an incredibly delicious savory cake - pie. It combines two completely different, at first glance completely incompatible fillings. And it reminds me of ours, which is also made with pancakes and three different fillings.


Although this execution looks more like a real cake.

We will need:

  • pancakes - 12 pieces
  • fish fillet – 500 gr
  • fresh mushrooms - 300 gr
  • rice 100 -150 gr
  • cheese 150 - 200 gr
  • onion - 1 pc.
  • sour cream - 200 gr
  • butter - 20 -30 g
  • vegetable oil - 1 - 2 tbsp. spoons
  • salt, pepper - to taste
  • spices - turmeric, oregano, coriander, sesame

We will also need a springform pan in which we will assemble and bake the cake.

Preparation:

1. Bake pancakes in advance according to one of the recipes you liked from previous articles; links to them are at the very beginning of today’s article. For the cake we will need 12-13 pieces.

2. Then let's prepare the two fillings. For one of them we will need boiled rice. Therefore, let’s put it to boil in slightly salted water.

It is best to use long grain steamed rice. It will not boil over or turn into mush.

3. While the rice is cooking, prepare the mushroom filling. To do this, you need to cut the onion into small cubes and the mushrooms into large slices.


Today we will use champignons. But in general, any mushrooms you have will do.


4. Fry the onion in a small amount of vegetable oil until golden brown.


5. Add mushrooms to it, salt to taste and cover with a lid. The mushrooms will release their juice and simmer together with the onions for 10 - 15 minutes, until the mushrooms are almost completely cooked.


When the filling is ready, drain the mushroom juice; we will need it later. Cool both the juice and the filling.


6. Now let's take care of the fish fillet. Any boneless fillet will do, or you can use fish with a few bones.


Salt, pepper, fillet or pieces of fish, sprinkle with a mixture of spices, do not use only turmeric, we will need it for rice.

7. Place the fish in the microwave and cook in it for 5 - 6 minutes. You can also use boiled or steamed fish. When baked in the microwave, all the spices “bloom” and give a simply magnificent flavor. The fish manages to become saturated with it, and subsequently transfers it to the entire cake.


8. When the fish pieces are ready, peel them from bones and skin, and if they were cooked from fillets, then there is no need to peel anything. In both cases, disassemble the fish into small pieces.


9. When the rice is cooked, cool it a little, add pieces of fish, reserved mushroom sauce and turmeric. Add enough of it to color the rice a nice orange color. Turmeric itself has no taste, it only gives color, so don’t be afraid to shift it. Mix the filling.


10. Grate the cheese on a medium or coarse grater. Now that everything is ready, let's assemble the cake.

11. For this we need a springform pan. When you bake pancakes, pay attention to their size. They must match the size of the form. If the pan is non-stick, then you do not need to grease it with oil. If not, then it should be generously greased with butter or vegetable oil.


If you don’t have such a mold, then you can bake in the mold that you have. It will just be easier to remove the cake from the springform pan.

12. And so, the mold is ready, and you need to place the pancakes in it, but in a special way, so that part is on the bottom, the middle is on the walls, and so that the top edge remains large enough. That is, we form these kind of walls out of them.

To do this, we need 5 finished products, which we lay out overlapping.


There is still free space in the middle of the bottom, so we cover it with a separate pancake. He is our sixth in a row. This is the form we got.

13. Now add the filling. Place the rice filling first and spread it out in an even layer about a centimeter to one and a half thick. Grease with sour cream. Each layer will use about two tablespoons of sour cream, which in turn can be replaced with mayonnaise. It will be very tasty, but also very high in calories. Therefore, choose the option yourself.

14. Sprinkle cheese on top of sour cream. Then add the next pancake. Place a mushroom layer on it, then sour cream and cheese again.

Then a new pancake, and repeat the layers in the same sequence as you started. Until we reach the top of the form.


Grease the top layer with sour cream and sprinkle with cheese.


15. Then cover the edges of the pancakes, lifting them and placing them on top of the filling.


But since they do not completely cover it all, cover it with the last product on top.


16. Grate the chilled butter and sprinkle on top of the pancake. Then lay out the sour cream and grease the entire surface with it and butter.


17. Place the pan in an oven preheated to 180 degrees and bake for 20 minutes. Until the cake is browned.

18. Allow the finished treat to cool slightly, then remove the side walls of the mold and carefully transfer the cake itself into a dish.

If you cooked in an ordinary one-piece form, then cover it with a large plate, and then turn the form over.

19. Serve and eat hot. This is such a hot cake in every sense!


It cuts well with a sharp knife, all layers retain their structure perfectly. Looks beautiful and very tasty! In addition, it is quite filling.

Instead of fish, you can also use chicken fillet. This will be a completely different, no less delicious story!

Unsweetened pancake cake with cream cheese cream and salmon and red caviar filling

This is a truly festive recipe, both in filling, in appearance, and in taste. Who would refuse a piece of treat with red fish and caviar? I think that there are not many of them at all.


This can be served immediately sliced ​​as a snack.

We will need:

  • pancakes - 10 - 12 pieces
  • lightly salted salmon - 300 gr
  • caviar - small jar
  • processed cheese - 400 gr
  • hard cheese - 100 gr
  • fresh herbs - a bunch
  • cream - 0.5 cups

Preparation:

1. Bake pancakes in advance according to one of the recipes that are in both today’s selection and in the selection of past issues. You need fairly dense, not very thin products. Therefore, in recipes that give recipes for thin pancakes, simply do not make a very thin dough.

In this case, the pancakes will be denser and thicker. I repeat, absolutely any recipe works!

2. For the filling, cut the red fish into pieces. As indicated in the recipe, we use lightly salted salmon. Chop the greens. You can take parsley and dill, it will be more aromatic, beautiful and tastier.


3. Place any melted cheese in a bowl and add a little cream, mix so that it is convenient to lubricate the layers with this mass.

4. Place the pancake in a large flat dish. Spread it with cheese. Place some red fish on top.


5. Then lay out some caviar and sprinkle with herbs.


6. Place another pancake on top. And repeat the entire filling sequence again. Repeat until all items are gone. In this case, part of the filling should remain to decorate the top layer.


7. We also grease the top layer with processed cheese, decorate with caviar, pieces of red fish, herbs and sprinkle grated hard cheese on top.


8. Place the cake in the refrigerator for an hour so that all layers have time to soak during this time.

9. Serve to the table. And we eat with pleasure!

Agree that such a snack cake will decorate any table for any holiday. And most importantly, it will not leave anyone indifferent.

2. Fry mushrooms with onions in vegetable oil + dill + sour cream = simmer
3. Cut boiled or smoked fish into pieces + poached onion + parsley.

At the same time, you can add various vegetables (leeks, carrots, sweet paprika, eggplant, zucchini..) and even fruits to these bases. I like to add tart apples to vegetables or meat. Beef loves prunes, and pork loves apples and oranges.

You can choose a couple of different fillings. For my cake, I chose ready-made sprat pate from a jar as the main one (you can replace it with canned fish by mashing the boneless flesh in fish oil), and added fried onions. And I coated a couple of layers with a vegetable filling made from fried vegetables (leeks and carrots).

I must say that usually the assembled cake is coated with sour cream or mayonnaise (and also added to the filling) and placed in the oven for 10-15 minutes. I didn't do this, I just assembled the cake from the pancakes and filling and put it in the refrigerator. The next day, when the guests arrived, there was an unusual snack on the table.

I recommend experimenting with fillings in advance and baking more thin pancakes. While they are still warm, layer the cake. Some layers can simply be coated with sour cream (mayonnaise for those who like it) or just melted butter (which is what I did). Then press the cake down with a heavy flat dish and put it in the refrigerator to brew. It is better to decorate with the products that were used to prepare the fillings.

We will need the following ingredients:

Eggs – 2 pcs. Sugar – 2 tbsp. l. Salt -1/2 tsp. Flour – 2 Milk Champignons -800-1000 g Onions – 2 pcs. Cheese - 200 g Mayonnaise - 100 g Vegetable oil - for frying

Cooking method:
Break two eggs into a bowl, add sugar and beat until foam begins to appear. Gradually add flour sifted through a sieve. You should get a thick dough. Warm up a glass of milk a little and pour into the dough in a thin stream, stirring constantly. The dough should have the consistency of liquid sour cream. Heat the frying pan well and lightly grease it with vegetable oil. Use a ladle to scoop up the dough and pour it little by little into the pan, tilting it in a circular motion until the dough fills the entire surface. Bake pancakes on both sides until golden brown. This amount of dough should make about 8 pancakes. Place them on a plate and start preparing the filling. Peel the onion, cut into small cubes and fry in a small amount of vegetable oil until golden brown. Wash the mushrooms, cut into small pieces, place in a dry frying pan. After 5-10 minutes they will release a lot of juice. Cover the pan with a lid and drain the juice. Now add a little vegetable oil and fry for about 20-30 minutes. Add salt to taste. Mix mushrooms with onions, cool, mince, add mayonnaise and mix well - the filling is ready. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Start assembling the cake: place the pancake on a baking sheet, brush it with the filling and sprinkle with cheese. On top there is another pancake and filling. And so on until the pancakes run out. Top - grease with mayonnaise and sprinkle with cheese. Place the cake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake for 10-15 minutes to melt the cheese. Wait until it cools down a bit, slice and serve!

    My family simply loves thin pancakes and can eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner with honey or jam. It's not surprising that I bake pancakes very often and experiment a lot with shapes and fillings. I recently made a very successful pancake cake; it turns out that it’s not at all difficult to make a pancake cake at home. I give the recipe with photos step by step, you will see for yourself that it is easier to make than regular stuffed pancakes. At the same time, it looks perfect, you can safely go on a visit with such a cake, it can successfully compete with store-bought ones, since you will take fresh and high-quality products for it. Another “plus” of this recipe is that the cake turns out quite light. Relatively little oil goes into the cream; the cream is custard, made in the best traditions of French crepevilles. It is much tastier than sour cream, and is very easy to prepare. I hope that you will like this pancake cake, and perhaps it will become your signature holiday recipe.

    How to make pancake cake at home

    Preparing pancakes for the cake

    We start preparing the cake by kneading the dough for thin pancakes. To do this, beat an egg into a bowl, add sugar and a pinch of salt, beat.

    I’m used to putting the products in exactly this order; if you first pour in the milk and only then add the flour, do it as is convenient. Dilute the resulting flour crumbs with milk and beat again until the dough becomes homogeneous without lumps.

    Next add oil.

    To make successful pancakes, the dough should be neither too liquid nor too thick. The right base has the consistency of jelly and resists a little when scooping.

    Heat the frying pan, grease it for the first time with oil or fat and bake pancakes (1 scoop = 1 pancake).

    The simplest custard for pancake cake

    When they are laid in a beautiful stack, prepare the custard. If you are afraid that for some reason it will not work, beat the sour cream with sugar and coat the pancakes with this sweet mass. But I assure you, even a child or a husband can make custard using the proposed recipe, although the child will figure it out faster.

    So, in a dry saucepan, mix sugar and flour.

    Warm the milk slightly (no need to bring it to a boil) and pour it into the same saucepan.

    Beat for 2 minutes. Again, it is important to get rid of lumps. Place the container over very low heat and bring the mixture to a boil, making sure to stir constantly. If you leave the stove for a long time, the cream may burn, or rather, it will definitely burn. After the contents of the pan begin to “breathe”, there will be no obvious bubbling, because the cream will thicken, keep it on the fire for another 30 seconds and remove from the stove. Quickly add melted butter to the cream and start the mixer again. You should end up with a soft custard.

    The pancakes are ready, the cream too, let's assemble the cake. Place the pancake on a flat plate and coat it with the sweet custard mixture.

    We put the next one on it and do the same. And so on until you have a dome-shaped pancake cake on your plate.

    We put the cake in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, decorate as desired, you can simply put a few frozen cherries on top, like I did.

    For those who liked baking pancake cakes and want to try other recipes, I offer two videos that personally aroused great interest in me.

    Only 8 comments on the recipe

    Thank you very much for the recipe! I've wanted to do something like this for a long time. Maybe I’ll dare to go crazy for my daughter’s birthday))
    I have a request (or advice) for you. I really like to print out recipes, then I store them in a special folder and use them. So, could you make a “print recipe” button like this? To avoid selecting pieces of text scattered between photos and copying them into Word?

    )) I hope we will do this over time. While we have the opportunity to add recipes to favorites, a tab crawls on the right. You can add a recipe by clicking on the green button below the text. I use these favorites myself, it’s a convenient thing.

    I love French crepevilles, but they are quite indecent in pastry shops. I just more or less learned how to bake pancakes, so you can make yourself a belly feast right on the weekend :). And if I add cocoa to the pancake batter, will it ruin the batter? My favorite is chocolate crepeville.

    Thank you very much for the recipe. delicious)))

    bad recipe. The pancakes are thick and there’s not enough yolks to add to the cream, it doesn’t thicken.

    Elena, if you brew the cream with flour, it will thicken. The thickness of the pancakes depends on the milk-flour ratio. It is impossible to calculate it accurately for pancakes, because the flour is all different (humidity and starchiness can vary greatly). Therefore, a range from 500 to 700 ml of milk is given.

    Thanks for the recipe, very tasty) simple, fast and affordable)))

    Thanks for the recipe, everything worked out) The only thing I had to add was 2 more eggs, because the pancakes stuck, even though the frying pan was greased with oil) The cream turned out without any problems, I also added a little finely grated nutmeg. In general, the cream reminds me of Bechamel sauce, only sweet))))

    Homemade pancake cake

    This is a very simple but delicious pancake cake. Pudding is used as a layer, and strawberry jelly is poured on top.

    • 250 gr. wheat flour;
    • 5 tbsp. vegetable oil;
    • 3 fresh eggs;
    • 1.1 liters of milk (including 450 ml for cream);
    • 1 pinch of salt;
    • 250 gr. sugar (including 100 g for jelly);
    • 37 gr. vanilla pudding powder;

    • 0.8 kg of fresh strawberries;
    • 2 tbsp. instant gelatin.

    Mix pancake dough from milk, vegetable oil, eggs and flour. Add salt and sugar to taste. We bake thin pancakes in the traditional way.

    For the layer, dilute sugar and powdered pudding in cold milk. Mix everything thoroughly and put it on the stove. As soon as the cream boils and thickens, set aside and cool.

    Pancake cake with custard

    This dessert is prepared according to the principle of the “Monastery Izba” cake, only instead of shortbread pastry tubes, homemade thin pancakes are used. This option is less labor-intensive than the original.

    So lovers of pancakes and curd-cherry fillings should definitely try this recipe.

    • 50 gr. butter;
    • 160 gr. white flour + 2 tbsp. for cream;
    • 700 ml milk (including 400 ml for cream);
    • 4 chicken eggs (including 2 for cream);
    • 150 gr. sugar (including 100 g for cream);
    • 1 pinch of salt;
    • 250 gr. frozen pitted cherries;
    • 0.5 kg of curd mass;
    • 170 gr. Philadelphia cheese.

    To prepare the cream, heat the milk until hot, but do not boil.

    In a bowl, beat 2 eggs with sugar and flour until fluffy. Then pour in hot milk in a stream, whisking all the time.

    Place the bowl with the contents on low heat, stir vigorously and bring the mixture until thickened. Place the cream aside and let it cool. Add Philadelphia to the warm mixture and stir until smooth.

    To prepare pancakes using protein dough, first separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the whites until stiff, adding a pinch of salt. In a bowl, combine the melted butter, 1 egg yolk, sugar, milk and salt. Add sifted flour to the thoroughly kneaded mass, and at the end of the kneading add protein foam. Using the protein dough, we immediately begin baking pancakes in a lightly oiled hot frying pan. This serving yields 12-15 pancakes.

    Now we begin to assemble our cake. Unwrap one pancake and coat with cream. Stepping back 1-2 cm from the edge, lay out the thawed pitted cherries in a row. Roll up a tight tube with cherries inside. We do this with all pancakes. Place the tubes on a serving plate in a mound, gradually tapering towards the top, to form a roof shape. We additionally coat each layer of tubes with warm cream. Coat the entire structure with cream and decorate with grated chocolate.

    To make the cake tasty and juicy, let it soak in the refrigerator for at least two hours. During this time, the cream layer will thicken, and the pieces will hold their shape when cut.

    Maslenitsa is in its final days this year, and you and I are finishing our last pancakes. And it seems like we’ve already tried everything - pancakes with caviar and condensed milk, lacy pancakes and rich pancake cakes - but the soul asks for something else - unusual, intricate. For those who decide to play pancake gourmet, we suggest trying to make multi-colored pancakes. By the way, such original colored pancakes will also be a tasty surprise for children! The authors of this culinary master class talk about the secrets of making colored pancakes using natural dyes.

    Maslenitsa: colorful pancakes for children

    This is the last post about pancakes this Maslenitsa. Last but important, because about pancakes for children: small pancakes and colorful pancakes.

    Yesterday my friend inspired and puzzled me with a special “order”. Namely - colored pancakes for babies. Today there was a themed lesson about Maslenitsa, and we couldn’t do without pancakes! The idea came quickly, and it was to make tiny colorful pancakes. But the implementation of the idea took 4 hours, 3 of which were spent on frying pancakes. (The frying pan is almost like a toy, 10-11 centimeters in diameter.)

    I divided all the pancake dough according to the basic recipe (weighing approximately 1.6 kg) into 5 equal parts of 320 g each. It turned out to be a mini batch for each color. Dyes are exclusively natural: juices and purees from fruits and vegetables. Namely: carrot and beet juice, spinach puree, as well as blueberry juice and pulp. True, I “sinned” a little - I also used Curacao Blue liqueur.

    Here's what happened: carrots - yellow, beets - pink, spinach - green, blueberries - purple, liqueur - turquoise.

    The amount of added dyes turned out to be almost the same everywhere: 2 tbsp. juice or puree.

    Dough coloring with juices

    Since we introduce additional liquid into the dough in the form of juice, to maintain the correct consistency we need to additionally add flour - according to Art. l. without top. To avoid making lumps, pour 3-4 tbsp. l. dough into a separate bowl and add flour there. Thoroughly stir the thick dough and return it to the main mini-knead.

    In addition, I would like to note that beet juice is never drunk freshly squeezed. Fresh beetroot is rich in aldehydes, and they are toxic substances (generally toxic and neurotoxic) and are irritating. This juice may cause dizziness, nausea or vomiting. Therefore, before use, it should sit for 3 hours in the refrigerator, in a wide container without a lid (this way the surface area is larger and volatile toxic substances will evaporate faster).

    Coloring the dough with vegetable or fruit puree

    Spinach puree does not increase the amount of liquid in the batch, so it does not require additional flour. Whatever we paint with, the main thing is to grind it and pass the original raw material through a fine sieve. We only need pure puree, pulp, without unnecessary fractions (seeds, plant fibers, etc.).

    So what's the result?

    The result is a mini slide of “toy” pancakes. All colored pancakes As they fry, I lined them with a narrow strip of parchment paper (1-1.5 cm x 10-12). This tape separates them symbolically, but definitely makes the process of separating the pancakes easier, especially if they turn out thin.

    For kids colorful pancakes Of course I liked it. So bright and tiny. Which once again proves that children really need a playful component in their food. It awakens their interest, and the process of eating for children becomes entertaining and fun.

    Pancake cake with matcha green tea

    There are still a few days left of Maslenitsa, which means it’s too early to stop indulging in baking pancakes when you get to the kitchen in the evening after a working day or in the morning after a good, sweet sleep. Personally, the process itself (along with the result, of course!) gives me a lot of pleasure, while striking in its simplicity!

    Therefore, and also because the holiday is gradually approaching its end, I am moving on to projects that are more serious than classic Maslenitsa pancakes. So, in front of you colored pancake cake with matcha green tea! Treats with this ingredient are my absolute favorite!
