What do Japanese Souffle Pancakes Taste Like?
Japanese souffle pancakes contain less sugar than traditional pancakes making them a bit healthier unless you’re like me and go crazy topping them loads of Chantilly Cream and Dulce De Leche, anyway, let’s get back to how this tastes. These delectable jiggly souffle pancakes are simply the best, they are light and airy with a wonderful essence of vanilla and light egg flavor, some might compare their flavor to a custard.
What’s The Difference Between Regular Pancakes And Japanese Souffle Pancakes?
The difference between regular pancakes and Japanese souffle pancakes is that traditional pancakes are sweet, flat, and soft dense texture, whereas Japanese souffle pancakes are less sweet with a light, airy, and fluffy jiggly texture. Souffle pancakes are made using less flour and require separating the eggs and whipping the egg whites into a meringue then combining them with the yolk mixture and flour.
Can You Bake Japanese Souffle Pancakes?
In short, the answer is yes you can bake Japanese souffle pancake in the oven. Preheat the oven to 150 ºC (300 ºF). Grease a baking pan with pan release or light oil then add dollops of souffle pancake batter with a ladle or tablespoon, I used 3 full tablespoon fulls. Bake each side for about 5-6 minutes. They will be firm but jiggly.
