Equipment

Ingredients
Pancakes
- 4 medium eggs
- 2 bananas (peeled)
- 1 tsp vanilla powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 2 tsp butter (for cooking the pancakes)
Topping Apples
- 1 medium apple
- 1 tsp butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla powder
Topping Berries
- 100 g frozen blueberries
- 1 tsp butter
Topping Others
- 40 g dark chocolate (85% cacao)
Instructions
Pancakes
- In a medium bowl add eggs, mashed bananas, vanilla and cinnamon. Gently mix all the ingredients using a whisk or a fork.
- Preheat a cast iron skillet and add 1/2 tsp of butter. Note that we’ll be cooking each pancake in about 1/2 tsp of butter.
- Using a medium ladle, add the batter for your first pancake into the skillet.
- Cook on small heat until lightly brown on one side, then carefully flip on the other side using a silicone spatula.
- Continue cooking on the other side until done, making sure not to burn it.
- Once done, remove pancake from the skillet using a silicone spatula.
- Repeat the entire process until the whole batter is gone, making sure to add roughly 1/2 tsp of butter before each pancake.
Topping Apples
- Prepare your apple: remove seeds and slice it into 8-10 slices.
- Grease the skillet with butter, add apple slices, vanilla and cinnamon.
- Cook the apple slices on all sides using medium heat.
- After 2-3 minutes, while the butter has absorbed into the apple slices, remove from heat and decorate your pancakes on top and on the sides.
Topping Berries
- Add berries and 1 tsp butter into cast iron skillet.
- Cook on medium until all the water has evaporated and the berries have cooked into a gem.
How to put together
- After you’ve finished cooking all the pancakes, take a separate plate and arrange the pancakes again, this time adding one layer of that freshly made berries jam between each layer of pancakes.
- Add cooked apples on top and on the side.
- As a final touch, chop and grate dark chocolate and add it on top of everything.
- Enjoy fresh or store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Notes
You can use any type of berries, I happened to have blueberries and some blackberries in the fridge so I used those.
Here’s how to assemble everything: Cook the pancakes at first and stack them on a plate. When the pancakes are done, cook the topping separately. Once the topping is ready, assemble your pancakes in a new plate and decorate them as shown in the pictures.
