Maltese Pancakes Original Recipe.
Every food has its origins, but have you ever wondered if pancakes are truly American or of Anglo-Saxon origin?
You won’t believe it, but the recipe starts from Greece, where they were called teganites, referring to the type of pan in which they were prepared, albeit without leavening agents.
During the transition to Europe, they were enriched with yeast, and with the discovery of America, the recipe spread, eventually becoming the delightful pancakes filled with maple syrup, jam, honey, or dried fruit.
I’ll also show you the procedure with the Bimby.

Preparation of Maltese Pancakes Original Recipe

Let’s start the preparation: in a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Create a “volcano” in the middle, pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter; mix with a fork or whisk until the mixture appears smooth.
If you are using Bimby: Put butter in the bowl and melt for 2 min at 99°F speed 2.
Add: flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, milk, the egg; mix for 3 min. speed 4.
Then heat a non-stick griddle or large pan over medium-high heat.
When it’s very hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake.
Wait until bubbles form.
If you wish, you can add blueberries or berries to the batter as you like.
Once bubbles appear, brown on the other side and serve with butter and blueberry syrup or Nutella.
