I added a punnet of blueberries to the mix and topped the hotcakes with strawberries, blueberries and yogurt. Very nice.
Really yummy! I didn't have ricotta, so made this using the homemade ricotta recipe from cookidoo. It only gave me 220g but the hot cakes still worked out well. Will definitely make again
You can use the butterfly to beat the eggwhites to ensure your eggwhites are lighter and more aerated. Just make sure there is no grease on your butterfly and around your blades. Otherwise you will not get a light, fluffy eggwhite. Perhaps just do a clean with white vinegar and water for 5 min at 100 degrees, speed 1, before you start, to remove any oils out of the blades, seal and butterfly. (this is on your delivery paperwork).
just wanted to clarify whether or not you needed to use the butterfly to beat the egg whites?
yum yum yum... my kids loved it and so did i... definitely a recipe to keep and continue making!
We made them over the weekend and served them with some hot poached cinnamon pears and ricotta for brekky. They were delicous! I think some warm baked or poached quinces would also be lovely as they are just starting to come into season.
These were beautiful. They were my choice of Breakfast on Mothers day, and my DH who really hasn't used Thermie yet gave it ago. Well he had trouble with this receipe and wondered when to put the flour in. Can you adjust the receipe. I told him to put it in step 2, but he just added it in at the end when he realised he still hadn't put any in.
We didn't make the honeycomb butter, but all the kids (1,3,5) and I loved them with either, Jam. Maple Syrup or Ricotta and Maple syrup on top.
Will def make again.
