Pancake cake with sour cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 3 hr 35 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make pancake cake with sour cream? First, prepare all the necessary ingredients for the pancakes. Take milk at room temperature, and refined vegetable oil. Wash and dry the eggs.

2. STEP 2

   

   Break eggs into a bowl, add sugar and salt. Mix with a whisk until smooth.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour the warm milk into the egg mixture and stir until smooth.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour vegetable oil into the egg-milk mixture and stir. Separately, mix flour and soda. Sift the flour through a fine sieve into the egg-milk mixture, stirring with a whisk until smooth, without lumps. Why sift flour? To get rid of debris and saturate the flour with oxygen. This will make the baked goods more airy and tender. Please note that you may need more or less flour, use the dough as a guide.

5. STEP 5

   

   Heat a frying pan over medium heat and grease it with vegetable oil. Using a ladle, pour the batter into the pan and spread the batter over the bottom of the pan. Bake the pancake on both sides until done. You can bake the following pancakes without oil (if your pan allows it).

6. STEP 6

   

   Bake all the pancakes from the dough. Transfer them to a plate and leave to cool completely.

7. STEP 7

   

   Make the sour cream and layer for our cake. Prepare the ingredients for this. For the cream, use very thick, good quality sour cream. You can use any jam or marmalade you like, as long as it is thick. Mine is from apricots.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place sour cream in a bowl and add powdered sugar. If you are not very sure about the quality of sour cream, add a special thickener for it. Usually the most “unwhipped” sour cream whips up perfectly with it.

9. STEP 9

   

   Beat the sour cream at medium speed with a mixer or blender into a homogeneous fluffy cream.

10. STEP 10

    

    Start assembling the pancake cake. Place the first pancake on a flat plate and brush it with sour cream. Place the second one on top and grease it too. Continue doing this until the fifth pancake.

11. STEP 11

    

    Grease the fifth pancake with jam.

12. STEP 12

    

    In this way, alternate layers until all the pancakes are finished. Spread the cream over the sides and top of the cake and level it using a long knife or plastic spatula. Place the cake in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours to soak.

13. STEP 13

    

    Remove the cooled cake from the refrigerator and decorate it as you wish. I decorated with chocolate and apricot slices from jam.

14. STEP 14

    

    Cut the pancake cake and serve it with tea or coffee.

15. STEP 15

    

    Bon appetit!

The cream can be made from cream rather than sour cream.

I made a pancake cake with sour cream, an excellent recipe for whipping up a dessert. The pancakes turned out great, but my cream came out a little runny; next time I’ll try adding a thickener. I used plum jam for the layer, everyone really liked the cake, I recommend the recipe!
