Vanilla Cakes

Vanilla-flavoured flannel griddlecakes served warm with maple syrup separately.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Sift the quarter pound flour into a clean bowl. Crack in the two raw eggs, then add the half ounce powdered sugar, quarter ounce baking powder, one saltspoon salt, half saltspoon nutmeg and half pint cold milk. Whisk thoroughly until well mixed and thickened.

  2. Step 2

    Add half a teaspoon ready-to-use McCormick Culinary Pure Vanilla Extract to the raw batter and mix in before cooking.

  3. Step 3

    Lightly grease the bottom of a large frying pan with a little melted food-grade lard and heat the pan. Ladle in rounds about two and a half inches across, four at a time without crowding.

  4. Step 4

    Cook for about one and a half minutes on each side as a guide, turning once, until browned and set through. Check with a clean food thermometer that all parts of each cake reach at least 68°C for seventeen seconds, continuing cooking as needed.

  5. Step 5

    Repeat with all the remaining batter, lightly regreasing as needed. Transfer the cooked cakes to a clean warm plate and serve warm with maple syrup separately.
