Amazake Pancakes
- 100 grams Flour (cake flour)
- 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 250 ml Amazake (beverage made by mixing rice, water, and koji)
- Combine the flour and baking powder in a bowl, stir with a whisk to break up the lumps and incorporate air into the flour.
- Put the egg into a different bowl and beat well with the whisk.
- Add the amazake and mix.
- (Use a food processor or blender to make the amazake smooth in advance.)
- Add the egg and amazake mixture into the bowl with the flour, and mix quickly with the whisk.
- Coat a frying pan with oil, heat until steam rises, then place the pan on top of a damp kitchen towel to cool.
- (Skip if you use a Teflon-coated frying pan.)
- Return the frying pan to the stove, turn the heat on low, then pour on a ladleful of batter.
- (It will be a circular shape if poured in from a slightly high distance from the pan.)
- When the surface starts to bubble and dry, then flip over.
- (If it the color is too light, the heat is low, and if it browns to a dark color, then the heat is high.
- Adjust accordingly.)
- After the both sides are browned, it's done.
- Stack the pancakes on a plate as you cook.
- Keep the pancakes warm with a kitchen towel so that they won't cool as quickly.
- You can enjoy the pancakes even more if you pour on some syrup or whipped cream, or serve with fruit.
