Print Recipe

A recipe for airy, cloud-like soufflé pancakes that are fun to make and decorate with monster faces, perfect for playful family breakfasts or brunches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) milk (whole milk preferred)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs, separated (room temperature)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted unsalted butter
  • Whipped cream or yogurt (for decoration)
  • Chocolate chips or blueberries (for pupils)
  • Strawberry slices or thin carrot sticks (for tongues or horns)
  • Food coloring pens or natural colorings (optional)

Instructions

  1. Separate the eggs: Carefully separate the yolks from the whites into two bowls. Let eggs sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: Whisk together milk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil or melted butter in a separate bowl.
  4. Make the batter base: Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry mix, stirring gently until combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Whip the egg whites: Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form (3-5 minutes).
  6. Fold in the egg whites: Gently fold one-third of the whipped egg whites into the batter, then fold in the remaining whites carefully to keep air bubbles.
  7. Heat the pan: Preheat a non-stick frying pan over low heat and lightly grease it.
  8. Cook the pancakes: Using a spoon or piping bag, dollop 3-4 tablespoons of batter per pancake, shaping thick rounds. Cover pan with lid and cook 4-5 minutes until bubbles form and edges set.
  9. Flip carefully: Flip pancakes gently and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and springy.
  10. Assemble the stack: Stack 3-4 pancakes on a plate and decorate with whipped cream or yogurt, chocolate chips, and fruit slices to create monster faces.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better whipping. Cook pancakes on low heat with a lid to trap steam and help them rise. Gently fold egg whites to keep air bubbles. If batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk. Fresh eggs make a big difference. For gluten-free, substitute almond flour or gluten-free baking blend. For dairy-free, use plant-based milk and coconut yogurt.
