Condensed milk pie maker pancakes

Condensed milk goes so well with all kinds of desserts and treats, so why not pancakes, in the pancake mix and a delicious caramel sauce?! This recipe makes a lovely batch of pancakes reminiscent of banoffee pancakes. After popping a few in the pie maker, you may want to make a double batch! How to make condensed milk pie maker pancakes: key tips Start by making a regular pancake mix using flour, an egg and some milk, then stir in that silky sweetened condensed milk. The batter will probably be a little lumpy, but that’s okay. Don’t try and stir the batter too much or your pancakes will be dense once cooked.  Let the batter rest for half an hour. This will help the flour fully absorb the liquid, which will result in a thicker, more stable, batter and your cooked pancakes will have a better texture. While the batter rests you can make the caramel sauce. Stir it often as it cooks so that the caramel cooks and thickens without burning on the base of the pan. This recipe will likely make more than what you’ll need for your pancakes. See the notes below the recipe for how best to store the remaining sauce. The pie maker acts just like a frying pan, so give the holes a good grease with butter for each batch. Pop a slice of banana in the centre of each hole and then pour the batter over the top. The banana will caramelise as the batter cooks. Flip over the pancakes, cook them for a little longer, then transfer them to a plate. Cover the plate with a tea towel to keep your pancakes warm while you cook the remaining pancakes. Serve them with some more banana slices and a generous drizzle of caramel sauce. Key ingredients in this condensed milk pie maker pancakes recipe Sweetened condensed milk adds a noticeable sweetness and a rich and milky flavour to these pancakes, making them a more indulgent treat. The milk solids in condensed milk also contribute to a thicker batter, which can lead to fluffier pancakes.  Choose firm, ripe bananas for this dish, so that they are lovely and sweet but still hold their shape well. Flipping over pancakes? Also try these ricotta pancakes and some buttermilk pancakes, too. This recipe was originally submitted by Serina Bird, a member of the Australia’s Best Recipe community.
