Chocolate Hazelnut Stuffed Pancakes
INGREDIENTS
- Chocolate hazelnut spread
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp. sugar
- 1 tbsp. baking powder
- ½ tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cup milk
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 4 tbsp. Botticelli Frying Olive Oil, plus more if necessary
- Fresh strawberries, sliced
- Fresh bananas, sliced
- Powdered sugar, for garnish
PREPARATION
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, using a spoon, place a dollop of the spread onto the parchment paper and smooth out into a thin circle, about 2-3 inches in diameter. The width of the circle will determine the width of your pancakes.
- Once you’ve covered the baking sheet, place in your freezer for about 15 minutes or until firm and solid.
- In the meantime, prepare your batter. In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and whisk together until well combined.
- In another large bowl, add in the milk, eggs, Olive Oil, and vanilla extract and whisk together well to combine.
- Slowly add in your flour mixture, whisking as you pour to avoid creating clumps, and stop once well combined. Do not over beat your batter.
- Once your spread is firm, begin making the pancakes. Using a griddle, pan, or skillet heated to medium heat, pour a small amount of olive oil and let it warm. Pour a serving of your batter, place the frozen spread in the center, and top off with more batter to fully cover the spread.
- Flip once the pancake begins to bubble up. Set aside once the other side is light golden brown or until it’s reached your desired doneness. Repeat until the batter and spread is finished.
- Stack your pancakes how you would like and top them off with the strawberry and banana slices. Dust them with powdered sugar, serve, and enjoy!
