Nut And Sesame Seed Stuffed Pancakes Recipes

NUTELLA-STUFFED PANCAKES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment and drop 12 separate teaspoonful mounds of chocolate-hazelnut spread onto it. Tap the baking sheet on a counter to flatten the dollops and freeze until solid, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a griddle over low heat and brush lightly with oil.
• Whisk together the flour, buttermilk, oil, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, egg and a pinch of salt in a large bowl until smooth.
• Pour eight 2-tablespoon pools of batter on the hot griddle and cook until bubbles just begin to form on the surface of the pancakes and the bottoms are golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Place a disc of frozen chocolate-hazelnut spread on 4 of the pancakes and overturn the 4 remaining pancakes on top of those, so the wet batter envelopes the discs. Put the remaining discs back in the freezer. Continue to cook the pancakes, flipping halfway, until the edges are set, about 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter and discs, lightly oiling the griddle in between batches.
• Dust the pancakes with confectioners' sugar and serve warm with syrup.

VEGGIE STUFFED PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine the pancake mix and water. Whisk the batter until smooth. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Make 12 pancakes about 5 1/2-inches in diameter. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Warm the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the onions, carrots, and garlic and saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach, tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl. Add the basil, 1/4 cup Parmesan, and mascarpone cheese. Stir the mixture until well mixed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 by 12-inch baking dish (or individual baking dishes). Using about half the vegetable mixture fill the pancakes. Lay pancake down on a work surface, top with 2 spoonfuls of vegetable mixture, sprinkle with some mozzarella cheese. Roll up the pancake around the vegetable mixture and place in the baking dish. Continue with the remaining pancakes, placing in the baking dish in 2 rows, and using up all the shredded mozzarella cheese.
• Place the remaining vegetable mixture in a blender with 1/2 cup whole milk. Blend until smooth adding up to 1/4 cup more milk if necessary to make a sauce. Pour the sauce over the center of the vegetable-stuffed pancakes in two rows. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan. Bake until the cheese is melted and the vegetables are hot, about 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

LOADED STUFFED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne., Shape 2 teaspoons cream cheese into a ball. Wrap 1/4 cup of potato mixture around cream cheese to cover completely. Drop into crumb mixture. Gently coat and shape into a 1/2-in.-thick patty. Repeat with remaining cream cheese and potato mixture., In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry stuffed pancakes, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.

NUT AND SESAME SEED STUFFED PANCAKES

Steps:

• Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine both flours, the yeast, sugar, salt, oil, warm milk, and ¼ cup (2 fl oz. or 60 ml) water. Knead or mix with a spatula until everything comes together in a sticky dough. Cover and set aside to rise until doubled in size, 1-2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the filling: In a food processor, combine the nuts and sesame seeds and pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a small bowl, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, tahini, date molasses, rose water, cinnamon, and salt and mix until everything comes together in a coarse paste.
• Oil your hands and divide the dough into 12 equal portions (about the size of golf balls) and place on an oiled tray. One at a time, flatten each ball until it's slightly larger than your palm and spoon a generous tablespoon of the filling into the center. Bring the edges together to seal each parcel into a ball.
• Pour a very thin layer of vegetable oil into a large frying pan and place over medium heat. When hot, place one ball and flatten it to a wide disc with an oiled spatula. Repeat until the pan is full. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 1 minute, then flip and continue to cook until the other side is a golden brown as well. Remove from the heat and serve while still warm.

SAUSAGE-STUFFED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Divide sausage into 6 equal pieces, and press between plastic wrap to flatten into discs about 2 1/2 inches round and about 1/8 inch thick. Keep in the refrigerator until needed.
• Grate potatoes and transfer into a large bowl of cold water. Stir the grated potatoes with your hand for a few seconds, and then drain the potatoes in a strainer. Using your hands and/or a towel, squeeze out as much water as possible.
• Transfer the potatoes to a mixing bowl. Add salt, black pepper, cayenne, flour, and egg; mix thoroughly.
• Heat oil in large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. For each pancake, place down about 3 tablespoons of the potato mixture. Reduce heat to medium; top each pancake with a sausage patty, pressing it down lightly into the surface. Top each sausage patty with another heaping tablespoon of potato mixture and spread over the top until the sausage is covered. Flatten down with a spoon or spatula.
• Cook the first side until very well browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until browned, the sausage is no longer pink, and potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes more. Serve with diced roasted red peppers, sour cream, and fresh chives.
