Nutella Pancake

I went to the KWXX Ho’olaule’a in Hilo, Hawai’i a few weeks back and a friend of mine (Aloha, Pierre) ordered a Nutella Crepes. Ever since I had the craving for one, so today I finally made one (actually I made one a few weeks back but I never took pictures). Since I haven’t been creatively cooking or baking since I got her I better post this one. Perfect snack for my 3:00pm coffee :)

Nutella Pancake

¾ cup flour

1 pck. Vanilla Sugar

1 Egg

Milk

(orange aroma – from Germany :)

Mix together – heat butter in frying pan - make one large pancake. Flip over once batter surface has “hardened” (not runny anymore).

Top with Nutella (spread out evenly). Roll and enjoy!

Guten Appetit!

Kumquat Marmalade and Pancakes

Kumquat Marmalade and Pancakes

My first try making jelly/marmalade. Since I only used  1/9th (!)* of the sugar it suggested (somewhere online) I was okay with the consistency (like thick syrup ).

Kumquat Marmalade:

26 Kumquats

2 Oranges

~3 cups water

Juice from one lemon

1 cup sugar (*the recipe online asked for 9 cups – seriously?)

Cut kumquats and oranges into small pieces (I got rid of the orange peel). Add to large pot with 3 cups of water. Let’s soak for about one hour. Bring to boil and boil until peels are soft. Add the sugar and the lemon juice and return to boil.  Let simmer until wanted consistency is reached.

Pancakes:

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 egg

A little sugar and one package vanilla sugar

Add mineral water until “pancake batter” consistency is reached (I always use milk, but ran out of milk yesterday morning so tried the mineral water – it didn’t change the taste at all)

Add all ingredients together and make pancakes :) Top with kumquat jam.

Guten Appetit!
