Ingredients
I used two 6โณ cast iron skillets, but you could also use one 10-12โณ cast iron skillet.
Batter
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the pan
- 4 tablespoons butter
Toppings
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup nutella or other chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1/2 cup roasted hazelnuts
- fresh strawberries
Instructions
Chocolate Hazelnut Whipped Cream
- Using an electric mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the heavy cream until it thickens to a thick, fluffy consistency.
- Add the hazelnut chocolate spread to your whipped cream. Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the chocolate hazelnut spread into your whipped cream until itโs mostly incorporated with a marbled appearance.
- Keep chilled in fridge until ready to use.
Pancakes
- Preheat oven to 425ยฐ.
- Using a blender, electric mixer, or by hand mix all the batter ingredients until smooth.
- Put butter into your pans. Put all 4 tablespoons if using one large pan, and divide evenly if using two small pans.
- Put cast irons in the oven until the butter melts completely. You may want to use a baking sheet under the pans to catch any butter drips.
- Pull cast irons out of oven and pour batter directly into them.
- Put batter filled pans back into the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes until pancakes are puffy and golden brown.
Assembling
- Top pancakes with chocolate hazelnut whipped cream, toasted hazelnuts and fresh strawberries. Enjoy while still warm.
