Delicious Pancakes with Zesty Orange Sauce

The amazing aroma of these delicate pancakes will wake up everyone at home in the morning! A very tasty breakfast dish! If you don’t have much time in the morning or don’t want to stand at the stove for a long time, then the sauce and dough for pancakes can be prepared in the evening, and in the morning you only need to fry the pancakes and make tea! The sauce has a rich aroma and taste. If you like it sour, you can add a little lemon juice. This sauce can be prepared for pancakes or served with a bun; you can adjust the amount of sugar to your taste.

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Ingredients

Step 2

Step 2
For the sauce: remove the zest from 1 orange (don’t touch the white part) and add to the sugar

Step 3

Step 3
Squeeze the juice from the oranges (I got 200 ml of juice) and add to the sugar and zest. Stir until sugar dissolves

Step 4

Step 4
Lightly beat the eggs with a fork (just mix the white and yolk, without forming foam) and add to the mixture. Leave for about 20 minutes so that the zest releases its aroma.

Step 5

Step 5
Strain the mixture, add butter and cook over medium heat until thickened (boil the mixture, it will not curdle!) Leave the finished sauce to cool

Step 6

Step 6
For pancakes: sift the flour, add sugar and a pinch of salt, mix

Step 7

Step 7
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, crack the egg into it and pour in a quarter of the milk.

Step 8

Step 8
Stir well, you get a thick dough, now add vanilla tincture to it

Step 9

Step 9
and the remaining milk, stir until smooth

Step 10

Step 10
(I always knead pancake dough in this way, and you won’t be afraid of any lumps of flour). Now the dough should be allowed to stand for at least 15-20 minutes. During this time, the flour in the dough will swell; if the dough becomes too dense, add a little more milk or water (I added 50 ml). Melt butter and add to dough

Step 11

Step 11
Now our pancakes can be fried. I don’t know why, but the most delicious pancakes are made in a cast iron frying pan. So, warm up the frying pan well (this is very important!), for the first pancake I always grease the pan with a little vegetable oil, and then fry all the rest without it. Fold the finished pancakes into an envelope and serve with sauce! (I added a few more berries and lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar). Bon appetit!
