Soft, fluffy pancakes layered with rich, silky homemade custard cream—this recipe is a dream come true! No oven or special equipment is needed. Just simple ingredients, a bit of time, and your love for delicious desserts.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Pancakes:

  • 180g cake flour (soft flour)
  • 2 eggs
  • 200g milk
  • 30g sugar
  • 2g salt
  • 30g cooking oil
  • 3g baking powder

For the Custard Cream:

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 300g milk
  • 60g sugar
  • 20g corn starch

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pancake Batter:

    • In a bowl, mix 180g cake flour, 30g sugar, 2g salt, and 3g baking powder.
    • In another bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 200g milk. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.
    • Stir in 30g cooking oil. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.
  2. Make the Custard Cream:

    • Whisk 3 egg yolks, 60g sugar, and 20g corn starch in a medium saucepan until smooth.
    • Warm 300g milk in a separate pot and gradually whisk it into the egg mixture.
    • Place the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens into custard. Let cool slightly.
  3. Cook the Pancakes:

    • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with oil.
    • Pour a ladle of batter into the pan, forming pancakes of your desired size. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook until golden brown.
  4. Assemble:

    • Place one pancake on a plate, spread custard cream on top, and layer with another pancake. Repeat until the stack is complete.
    • Serve warm, optionally garnished with honey or powdered sugar.

Notes

  • Resting the Batter: Letting the batter rest ensures fluffier pancakes.
  • Alternative Flours: You can use all-purpose flour, but the texture will be slightly different.
  • Storage: Wrap leftovers in plastic wrap and refrigerate. Reheat gently before serving.
  • Customizations: Add fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of syrup for extra flavor.
