“SCOTCH PANCAKE’S RECIPE”

 Posted By Faryal Shah


scotch pancakes recipe



The recipe for today's scotch pancakes (drop scones) is a delectable traditional British breakfast. With this recipe, you can make soft, sweet, moist & fluffy pancakes drizzled with maple syrup, fruits, and berry jam, which is slightly different from American pancakes.

        I've loved this recipe since I tried it, and it's now on my breakfast table every morning. Compared to my previous pancake recipe, this one is much more satisfactory.  Starting a brand-new day off with a healthy  & delicious kind of breakfast is the perfect way to fulfill all the needs of a good meal, hence its awesomeness.

         Scotch pancakes can be served as breakfast, lunch, snacks, and brunch. This recipe is so quick and easy that hardly needs time to get ready in less than 30 minutes, if you are looking for unsweetened and low-carb pancakes I’ll definitely suggest you, make the keto pancakes a healthy version. This is simple baking perhaps the very simplest of all.

fluffy pancakes


The following ingredients are used in this recipe:

1 & ½ cups of all-purpose four

2 tsp baking powder

3 tbsp of caster sugar

2 large egg

1 cup milk

a pinch of salt

Cooking Oil for pancakes


Method:

The drop-scones methodology is so simple & I would be choosing this method which is only a 2-step procedure just coating the parched.

Before starting this recipe let me note some of the important tips which will help you to ensure the best Scottish pancakes for a special breakfast.

The authentic pancake recipe calls for self-rising flour, but I’ve used plain flour with baking powder, it's a voluntary step whether you have it or not, you can switch to the volition.

DRY MIX:

Start by sifting the dry ingredients like flour, baking powder, caster sugar & salt together.

WET INGREDIENTS:

Next to the wet mixture, combine eggs and milk well.

THE BATTER:

Make a good batter in the center of your dry mix, then pour the wet ingredients into it to make a thick and smooth batter. Because we didn't want crepes to result, add a small amount of milk to the wet ingredients to avoid runny batter.

Place your pan or griddle over the heat and grease it with a small amount of oil and is better to use oil rather than butter to get rid of burning the pancakes readily, once the pan is heated add a large spoonful of batter around 10 cm, and let the pancake cook under the low-medium heat, give 1-2 minute each side or until the bubbles are formed on the top of the pancake.

Flip it and cook both sides until light golden brown. When it's ready remove it from the heat and repeat the same process for the remaining pancakes.

Additionally, you can substitute the ingredients as I've told you before, self-raising flour uplifts the pancakes beautifully, further, another hattrick idea to make them nicely fluffy is buttermilk, yeah sometimes I ran out of the ingredients I replace them with the normal one, it's fine.

Serve it hot or cold with whatever toppings you like, enjoy them and complete your daybreak with a delicious treat.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Be careful not to overmix the batter

Use an oil (or butter) brush to apply a thin layer of oil

You'll scorch your pancakes if it's too hot so low-medium heat is the best.

Do not store the batter when using baking powder.

All the ingredients must be at room temperature, it's the key to wonderful baking.

Refrigerating the batter for an hour is fine, but not the night before cooking.


TOPPING SUGGESTIONS:

Berries, jam, yogurt, sprinkles, dry fruits, maple syrup, butter, and honey. For a good flavor, lemon or lime zest can be added to the batter or orange zest.

Some different flavorings for example Cocoa powder, Cinnamon, Vanilla extract & Dehydrated Coconut.

Coffee and Walnut Cake Recipe
November 10, 20220 Comments

 Quick Recipe of Coffee and Walnut Cake


Posted By Nimra Siddique


Coffee and Walnut Cake


It is only eaten with coffee. People buy coffee and walnut cake because they want something to go with their coffee. The coffee walnut cakes are easy desserts. Consider how many coffee shops in America sell various pastries. The creaming method, also used in the Victoria sandwich and other classics, is used in most classic coffee and walnut recipes. Slater, for example, believes that the key to a good coffee and walnut is "just to beat the butter."


Ingredients For Chocolate Fondue


softened butter pack, plus extra for tins (250g )

 cooled strong black coffee (made with 2 tbsp coffee granules)(100ml )

 self-rising flour(280 grams)

caster sugar, golden(250g )

baking powder(12 teaspoon)

Four eggs

One tablespoon of vanilla extract

walnut, two tablespoons roughly chopped, staying chopped (85g )

sifted icing sugar, plus a little extra for dusting (100g )

Double cream, 150ml

At room temperature, 100g mascarpone

Allow the coffee to cool after mixing it with 1 tbsp of boiling water. Half the walnut took in the pan, toasted and nutty, then set a quarter aside and roughly chop the rest.

The oven's heat should be 180°C; grease and line two 20cm sandwich pan.


Chocolate Fondue

Method To Make Easy Desserts


Combine the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy. While the mixer is still running, slowly pour the egg mixture, scraping down the sides as needed. A spoon of flour, baking powder, and salt, gradually adding the coffee and chopped walnuts. If the batter does not fall reluctantly from a spoon, add milk to loosen it—Bake in the two tins for about 25 minutes or until well-risen. Allow cooling for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine two tablespoons of coffee for the icing with one tablespoon of boiling water and set aside to cool.


Warm cheese with wine and chocolate fondue tastes delicious and is simple to prepare. The heat of the oven should be 180°C/160°C.


Then, using an electric whisk, combine the butter, flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, vanilla, and half of the remaining coffee in a large mixing bowl. Fold in the finely chopped walnuts, divide among the muffin cups, and spread evenly. Scatter the walnuts on top of one of the cakes. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Wait until the color of the cake is golden.


Drizzle the remaining coffee over the plain cake. Now cakes are excellent in a pan. Meanwhile, make the filling: combine and fold two tablespoons of coffee. Spread the basic cake with the icing, then top with the walnut-topped cake and dust with icing sugar.


Coffee cake is a single-layer cake with a sweet cinnamon flavor and a streusel topping made of flour, butter, and sugar. Streusel can also be used as a filling inside the cake. Fruit varieties abound, with blueberries being the most common. You can keep it for up to 2-3 days in the fridge, and use the airtight box to keep it fresh and moist.

Conclusion


And, while the classic coffee and walnut coffee cake are great for custom cakes near me, can anyone recommend a more decadent, more sophisticated coffee cake to serve after dinner?

Chocolate Lava Cake Recipe

Easy Recipe For Chocolate Lava Cake

Posted By Nimra Siddique

chocolate lava cake



We love to share an easy recipe for chocolate lava cake. This cake is full of molten chocolate. We can make this chocolate lava cake in 30 minutes. Cupcakes with chocolate are desirable for any occasion, like weddings, birthday parties, etc. You can make a yummy chocolate lava cake using the simple ingredients below.


You will not believe it is elementary to make a  chocolate lava cake at home. They are the perfect individual sweet because they're less undercooked, resulting in gooeyness. Now add the melted chocolate over the jelly.


These molten chocolate cakes are perfect for special occasions like wedding ceremonies, Mother's Day, and a regular weekend. Because you only need a few pantry staples, these are ideal for a quick dessert. Try my pastry cake, cupcake, or chocolate lava cake recipes for another chocolatey dessert.

Ingredients that are used in chocolate lava cake

1. Chocolate

In this way, you can use 60% hot cocoa. I like to use half-sweet chocolate, but you can part with dark chocolate. To get the best smooth and melty centers, I recommend using a high-quality baking chocolate bar, such as Ghirardelli.

2. Butter

Use unsalted butter to prevent the chocolate lava cakes from becoming too salty.

3. Eggs 

Two eggs and two egg yolks are required for this lava cake recipe. 

If you want to make richness and creaminess of this chocolate lava cake, you can add more yolks 

4. Flour 

These pastry cakes require very little flour. The flour adds structure, but too much will interfere with the molten centers.

5. Salt 

6. Sugar

The Process of Making the Chocolate Lava Cake


1. Melt the butter and chopped chocolate two times; heat them, stirring until smooth, Or you may put the butter and chocolate in a microwave pan and melt it for min 25-30 sec, stirring after a while until it will be smooth.

2. Combine the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix it to make the mixture thick and pale yellow.

3. Mix the chocolate and flour mixture into the egg mixture.

4. For the combined mixture, fold it.

5. Divide the batter among butter and flour; remix and bake it for 5 to 6 minutes. Cupcakes are firm but jiggly. Let the cakes cool for at least 2 minutes.

6. Carefully place a small dessert plate on top of each ramekin and invert the chocolate lava cake onto the plate. Stay a while for at least 5-10 sec to unmold the cake. Sprinkle some granulated sugar, and add some berries. Serve the chilled cakes for the best results.

Review Of The Recipe For Chocolate Lava Cake


Refrain from filling the measuring spoon with flour. Fluff the flour before sprinkling it into the tablespoons or weighing it with a scale. The center will become firm if you can make it better by adding more flour.

Before placing the ramekins in the oven, ensure they are completely hot. Because of the high temperature, the outside of the cake bakes faster than the inside. That produces a perfectly cooked exterior while the chocolate lava filling remains gooey!

Use room-temperature eggs to ensure they mix into the batter without being over-mixed. If your eggs are cold, place them in a bowl of warm tap water.

Keep an eye on the chocolate lava cakes as they bake.

The Good Representation Before Serve


Serve these warm chocolate pastry cakes with vanilla ice cream, a drizzle of hot fudge sauce, or a heaping spoonful of whipped cream. Fresh berries or sprinkles make an excellent garnish. I also enjoy drizzling caramel on top of the cakes!

Sugar 2 tbsp or condensed milk


INGRIDIENTS FOR GANACHE:

Fresh Cream 200ml

Dark cooking chocolate sweetened 1 cup (chopped)
                              OR
Any chocolate spread/Nutella



METHOD:


The Chocolate cake seems like a delicious heavenly dessert which is easy as pie to forge a cake if you know the baking tips, either stove or oven baking but we’re not going to use any of these methods because I have something special for you to easily make one of the best cakes of all time in your life with the most straightforward way “No oven Chocolate cake” where I'm going to use a nonstick pan, the flavor of this cake will blow your mind I'm challenging you! subsequently, you can create cakes for any event in just 20 minutes.


No Oven Chocolate Cake Recipe



                                                            STEP 01

 No use of baking molds or tools, the perfect and startling taste, so let's start by greasing the Non-stick heavy bottom pan by melting the half cup of butter in it on low-medium heat, we do not want the butter to get burned, transfer the butter to your bowl which already has greased your pan.


                                                           STEP 02

 Next, we’ll be sifting all the dry ingredients flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder, this will help you to facilitate the whole process. Set aside the dry components.


                                                           STEP 03

 Head to the next step, then add sugar to the melted butter, you can use granulated or powdered sugar for a quick mix. This is a very important step where the sugar needs to be completely dissolved, take 2 eggs at room temperature and add 1 at a time into the bowl of sugar and butter mixture, whisking gently until a gooey foamy texture appears.


                                                         STEP 04

                  Add the dry mix to the bowl and coat the batter using a spatula do not use a whisk for this step start coating the batter in a clockwise direction & do not over-mix the batter just when you see the dry ingredients disappear, incorporated well then add the milk in it. 


                                                        STEP 05

Now to the last step add 2-3 drops of vanilla essence & mix well. Our batter is ready to go in the pan place your greased pan on the stove on a medium-low flame and pour the batter in it gently, cover the lid and leave it for 20 minutes, give a toothpick test to the cake after 20 minutes, do not disturb the cake in between and if the toothpick comes out with the batter then give more 3-4 minutes.

          When it's ready don't bring it off the pan it will immediately break into pieces the hot cake is so soft enough so let it cool completely on the counter.


                                                     STEP 06

On the other side, let's prepare the soaking syrup, now you can use milk for this cake but I'm using coffee syrup that gives amazing flavor to the decadent chocolate cake, take 1 tsp coffee in half a cup of water and 2 tbsp sugar mix it and your syrup is good to go, prick the cake with fork or knife and pour syrup over the cake.

Place the soaked cake in the fridge for about 30 minutes at least.


                                                    STEP 07

It's so easy to make ganache with dairy cream and cooking chocolate and personally, if you want to make this cake more rich and flavorful you can use imported chocolates e.g KitKat, mars, etc.

     Using a small non-stick pan, heat the dairy cream and bring it to a boil then add chopped chunks of chocolate, it is essential to cut those pieces to melt them easily. I’ve used a nonstick pan so that my chocolate and cream don't get burned.

when you add chocolate turn off the store and stir, the residual heat will melt the chocolate perfectly .refrigerate for about 30-40 minutes.

          I prefer to use dark semi-sweet cooking chocolate if you don't wanna use imported ones. 

         All the things are ready to assemble so let's get to it.



No Oven Chocolate Cake


                                                    STEP 08

Place the cake back into the pan it looks cute but that's optional, then add your ganache to the top and spread it gently with a spatula or knife.

         Decorate it with any kind of chocolate shavings, chocolate syrup, chocolate pieces, wafers & sprinkles.

Refrigerate for 1 hour, Our cake is prepared.

 cut a slice, and enjoy ;)


Chocolate cake recipe


     

 Tips:

I didn't use any baking tools or molds but still, I'm kinda shocked that my cake was baked on the stove in a nonstick pan perfectly.

Now keep in mind if you are using any kind of nonstick pan for the cake make sure the bottom must be heavy but if it's a thinned bottom pan then place a griddle under it.
 The flame should be medium to low. Most importantly do not skip the butter otherwise you will not achieve the perfect taste and texture of the cake. It is the star ingredient of this recipe and the cocoa powder should be rich and dark, dutch processed cocoa powder does not confer better results.
You will feel the difference after using it at once.
Do not over-mix the batter because if you do the cake will lose the air majorly this step leads to how much you want to make the cake aerated, light, and moist but however overmixing results in a non-aerated, dense, chewy cake.
