Hot Mincemeat Pancakes Recipes

MINCEMEAT PANCAKES WITH ORANGE BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Orange sauce: Place the sugar, water and orange zest in a pan and bring to the boil, let it bubble and froth for 1 minute on a medium heat, then turn down the heat to low and stir in the butter until melted. Leave on a very low heat until ready to serve.
• Next make the pancakes. Place the milk and mincemeat in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the flour, baking powder, sugar, egg, vanilla extract and salt. Use a balloon whisk to mix until combined.
• Pour ¼ tbsp. oil in a large skillet, then wipe around with a kitchen towel to cover the pan. Heat the pan on a medium heat until hot. Pour in enough mixture to make three pancakes (approx. ¼ cup of mix per pancake). Turn the pancakes over when bubbles form on top and then burst, and the edges start to look firm (about 1-2 minutes). Cook on the other side for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the rest of the mixture - oiling the pan each time - until all the pancakes are cooked (you can keep the pancakes warm in a very low oven whilst you're making each batch).
• To assemble, stack 3 pancakes on each plate. Top each stack orange segments, butter sauce and whipped cream.

STUFFED MINCE PIE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and whisk in the eggs, butter and milk until smooth, then pour into a jug.
• Heat a knob of butter and a small drizzle of oil in a large frying pan. Pour in 8cm rounds of batter and spoon 1 heaped tsp of the mincemeat into the centre of each - you'll need to do this in batches. Use a little batter to cover the mincemeat, then cook for 2 mins until golden. Flip and cook for 2 mins more, keeping the pancakes warm in a low oven while you cook the rest.
• Mix the double cream with the icing sugar and brandy. To serve, stack three pancakes on each plate and top with the brandy cream, some crumbled shortbread and a dusting of icing sugar.

HEARTY OATMEAL PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix the rolled oats and buttermilk together in a large bowl; allow to soak 15 minutes.
• Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate large bowl.
• Beat the eggs and milk together in a separate small bowl; mix into the soaked oats. Stir the flour mixture into the oat mixture. If the batter seems dry, add milk about 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
• Grease a skillet or griddle and place over medium heat. Ladle about 1/2 cup of batter per pancake onto your preheated cooking surface. Cook until the pancake is lightly golden brown, about 2 minutes, flip, and continue cooking to brown other side, another 1-2 minutes.
