The Ultimate Japanese Pancake Recipe

Give our fluffy Japanese pancake recipe a go this weekend – you only need a few ingredients

Known for their fluffy texture, Japanese pancakes don’t taste dissimilar to your average American pancake. What is different, however, is their height – these things are thick – and the way in which they wobble about on the plate. Seriously, there’s something quite mesmerising about watching a Japanese pancake jiggle…but we’ll leave you to explore that in your own time.

So, how do you make them? Well, you’ll be pleased to know that Japanese pancakes require similar ingredients to your average pancake. The only difference is the fact that you’ll need to substitute plain flour for self raising flour and add a little more sugar to the mixture. From there, you’ll also need to get your hands on some crumpet rings to give your Japanese pancakes their signature shape, but we’ll talk you through that below.

Japanese pancake recipe

Ingredients

  • Self-raising flour, 100 grams
  • 2 eggs
  • Baking powder, half a teaspoon
  • Golden caster sugar, 20 grams
  • Sunflower oil, a tablespoon
  • Milk, 180 millilitres
  • Vanilla extract, a teaspoon
  • Toppings: maple syrup, berries, bacon, ice cream (or whatever else takes your fancy)

Method

1. Add your sieved  flour and baking powder to a bowl, along with the sugar. Combine thoroughly before making a small well at the centre.

2. Add your eggs to the well, along with the oil, and begin working your flour mixture into the centre. If you’re using vanilla essence, now is also a good time to do so

3. For the best result, we’d recommend using a non-stick pan for your Japanese pancakes. Heat to a low temperature and place your crumpet rings (cookie cutters could also work) in the centre of your pan.

4. Place a small amount of oil inside the ring before adding the pancake batter – aim to fill it around three quarters full.

5. Place a lid over your pan and leave the pancakes to cook for ten minutes, or until you see small bubbles begin to appear on the surface.

6. At this stage gently flip your pancakes – we’d recommend using a plate to assist you with this – and allow to cook for a couple more minutes.

7. Stack your pancakes on a plate and top with whatever toppings take you fancy. We love maple syrup and stewed berries, but it’s totally up to you. Even dusting with some matcha powder to add that extra depth in flavour.

Totally vibing on the ASMR of the film loading of these old school Japanese cameras by @filmobjektiv .  If there’s one thing 2020 has taught us, is that you really need to cherish and capture the good times. It’s those moments that get us through the rough patches.

Christmas saved KFC in Japan. KFC became Japan’s Christmas saved KFC in Japan. KFC became Japan’s answer to traditional Western Christmas food. With Kurisumasu ni wa Kentakki, or “Kentucky for Christmas” being a familiar promotion during the holidays.  KFC promoted fried chicken as a substitute for traditional Christmas turkey, which the Japanese knew was eaten in the West. Selling chicken and sides together in Christmas-themed “Party Barrels” and turning Colonel Sanders into Santa-san turned KFC into a new holiday tradition in Japan.
