Prep Time: 5 min + 20 min Rest
Cook time: 10 min
Yield: 6 pancakes
Ingredients
Pancakes
45g whole wheat flour
45g all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
250mL milk
2 eggs
Strawberries
4 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen
1 tbsp honey
Brown Cheese Caramel Sauce
100g Norwegian brown cheese
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Directions
Start by preparing your pancake batter. Combine both flours and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Add about half the milk and mix together until you get a paste. Then add the remaining milk and mix until the batter is smooth. Finally add the eggs, one at a time, and beat well. Set aside and let rest for 20 min while you make your fruits and sauce.
In a medium saucepan, add your strawberries and honey. Cook over medium heat until the strawberries begin to break down. Mash with a potato masher or a fork. Simmer over medium low for a few minutes and the juices thicken. Remove and scrape into a bowl for serving. Wash out the pan and use for the caramel sauce.
Cut up the brown cheese into slices and place in the medium saucepan along with whipping cream and sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium high heat and stir constantly until the cheese dissolves and all the ingredients form a pourable, but thick, sauce. Remove into a jar.
Heat a medium-large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add a knife of butter to the pan and spread it over the bottom of the pan. Use a 1/3 to 1/2 measuring cut to pour the pancake batter into the hot pan. Swirl the pan to allow the batter to coat the bottom of the pan. Cook for ~45 sec or until the bottom is browned. Flip and cook for another ~45 sec on the other side.
Fold the pancakes and keep warm on a plate in the oven until ready to serve.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding butter to the pan each time & continuing to keep the pan heat high.
