South African 20 Mins Prep · 20 Mins Cook
- Place 1 egg, 275ml milk, vinegar, sunflower oil, flour, baking powder and ¼ tsp sea salt in a blender. Blitz until smooth. It should be thin and pourable; add extra milk or water, if needed. Cover the batter and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together the egg yolk, sugar, corn starch, ¼ tsp salt, vanilla, cinnamon and just enough milk to form a smooth paste. Place the remaining milk in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg yolk paste while whisking, then return the mixture to the stove and cook it over a medium heat while stirring constantly. The filling is ready when it has a thick consistency.
- Zest the clementine into the custard. Cover the surface with cling film and set aside to cool. Slice the clementine into wedges for serving.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and grease with cooking spray. Pour 60ml of batter into the pan, tilting the pan in a circular motion to spread it thinly and evenly.Cook for approx. 1 minute, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter. Stack the pannekoek on a plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm.
- Spread a generous spoonful of the milk tart filling thinly over the surface of a pannekoek, then roll the pannekoek tightly or fold it into quarters. Repeat with the remaining pannekoek and milk tart filling. Sprinkle over some cinnamon.
- Serve the pannekoek with the clementine wedges on the side.
