Recipe Variations
To make it different, I added the following ingredients:
- You can change the flavor by adding ¼ teaspoon of extracts like vanilla, lemon, or almond. Try them with a different one each time.
- Add a teaspoon of cocoa and sift it with the flour before adding it to the egg yolks to make chocolate-flavored pancakes.
- Matcha is always a favorite addition to Japanese pancakes. Just sift it in with the flour.
Tips to make the best Souffle Pancakes
- Remember to preheat the skillet. This is a crucial step. If your skillet is not hot enough, the pancakes will deflate before cooking.
- Adding water is also important. The steam created inside will help harden the egg whites so the pancakes don’t deflate.
- Setting your skillet on low is crucial as well. If the heat is too high, the bottom will burn and the middle will not cook.
- Over-Mixing the batter will take the air out of the mixture and the pancakes will turn out flat. The egg whites should be folded gently into the egg yolk mixture.
- Do not attempt to flip the pancakes until you are sure they are no longer stuck to the bottom. If you can’t move them, leave them a bit longer.
