Ingredients:
For the Pancakes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Custard Cream Filling:
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
For Serving (optional):
Fresh berries or fruit
Powdered sugar
Maple syrup or honey
Instructions:
Make the Custard Cream Filling:
In a small saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk with cornstarch until smooth.
Gradually pour the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture while whisking continuously to avoid curdling the egg. Once combined, return the mixture to the saucepan.
Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens to a custard-like consistency (about 5 minutes).
Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the custard to cool while you prepare the pancakes.
