Dorayakis

I grew up watching Doraemon, if you don’t know it, it is a Japanese TV show featuring a cosmic cat from the future that helps a kid. This blue and white cat loves the Dorayakis. This is a easy recipe that might remind you of crepes or pancakes.

Ingredients

  • 2 L eggs
  • 70g sugar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 80 g flour (sifted)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Oil
  • Nutella

Steps

  1. Mix the two eggs with the sugar in a bowl. 
  2. Add the spoon of honey and mix, I would recommend you to heat a bit the honey to make it easier to mix. 
  3. In another bowl, sift the flour and add the baking powder. Add it to the honey-egg mix in 2 or 3 goes.
  4. Let it rest for 15 minutes. 
  5. In the meanwhile heat a pan  to 160Cº-170Cº. With a paper add some oil. Any drop of oil will leave a “stain” in the beautiful smooth surface of the dorayaki. 
  6. After the time has past and the pan is hot, add a big scoop (it needs to be the same amount always). Let it cook for 3-4 minutes or until you see a lot of bubbles in the surface and the dorayaki releases from the pan easily.
  7. Turn it and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes. 
  8. Take it out and repeat for the other shell. While it cooks, add the nutella. The original recipe uses this bean paste named anko
  9. Place the top shell on the dorayaki and enjoy!
