Vanilla cream fritters, the recipe.
A very tasty (and very caloric) dish that, with a little preparation, will surely please all diners.
Ingredients
For the cream:
– 500 ml of whole milk;
– 1 vanilla pod (or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract);
– 4 egg yolks;
– 150 g of sugar;
– 50 g of flour;
– 30 g of butter.
For the pancakes:
– 250 g flour;
– 1 sachet baking powder;
– 1 pinch of salt;
– 2 tablespoons sugar;
– 2 eggs;
– 250 ml milk;
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract;
– Oil for frying;
– Icing sugar for dusting (optional).
Preparation
For the cream:
In a saucepan, heat the milk with the seeds extracted from the vanilla pod (or add the vanilla extract). Bring the milk to a boil, then turn off the heat and let it sit for a few minutes.
In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until creamy.
Add the flour to the egg yolk mixture and mix well.
Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg and flour mixture, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Transfer the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a whisk until the cream thickens.
When the cream has reached the desired consistency, add the butter and stir until fully incorporated.
Remove the cream from the saucepan and transfer to a bowl. Cover the surface of the cream with cling film (in contact with the cream) to prevent a crust from forming. Leave to cool.
For the pancakes:
In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
In another bowl, beat together the eggs and add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Gradually pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. The more oil you use, the rounder they will be (less will make them very shallow). Make sure the oil is very hot but not smoking.
Use a spoon or ladle to spoon portions of the batter into the pan, forming round pancakes. You can shape the batter slightly with the back of the spoon to make them more even.
Cook the pancakes until golden brown on both sides, turning them with a spatula.
Drain on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
At this point you can pour the cream generously over the pancakes and serve them while still hot!
