Pancake Spaghetti

Thin pancake batter piped through a squeeze bottle into long noodle strands on the griddle, piled high like a plate of spaghetti and finished with butter and syrup, the breakfast re-trend everyone tried.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2 egg
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (for batter), melted
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (for serving)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tbsp granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt.

  2. 2

    In a separate bowl, whisk 1 1/2 cups whole milk, 2 egg, and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter (for batter) together, then pour into the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth and thin enough to pour easily off a spoon.

  3. 3

    Transfer the batter to a squeeze bottle with a narrow tip, or a zip-top bag with a small corner snipped off.

  4. 4

    Heat a nonstick griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease it.

  5. 5

    Squeeze the batter onto the griddle in thin, continuous back-and-forth strands about the width of spaghetti, working in small batches so the strands stay separate.

  6. 6

    Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the strands are set and bubbling, then flip the whole tangle with a wide spatula and cook 1 minute more until cooked through.

  7. 7

    Pile the pancake noodles onto plates like a nest of spaghetti, top with 2 tbsp unsalted butter (for serving), and drizzle generously with 1/2 cup maple syrup.

Go by the cues in the method rather than the clock. Step 6: cook until the strands are set and bubbling. Step 6: cook until cooked through.

What can I use instead of maple syrup in Pancake Spaghetti?

The entry for Pancake Spaghetti calls for 1/2 cup maple syrup. In its place: Honey, measure for measure, or brown sugar dissolved in a little warm water.

Can I make Pancake Spaghetti gluten-free?
