Honey Butter Pancakes from Demon Slayer _ Anime With Alvin

**Cooking Three Pancakes at Once: A Restaurant-Style Experience**

We're going to cook three pancakes all at the same time, as if we were at a restaurant. We have three pans of all differing sizes, each one is going to get a slightly little bit of butter. I'm going to melt that down and use the paper towel again just to give it a thin coating in the pan. We don't want too much now. Our goal is to fill each one up with hopefully the same amount of batter, but evenly distributed throughout.

As we pour the batter into each pan, we'll need to make sure they're evenly filled and not overflowing. The key here is to work quickly and efficiently, as this will help prevent a mess in the kitchen. We want our pancakes to be cooked perfectly, with a golden-brown color on both sides. To achieve this, we'll need to cook these pancakes at the lowest heat possible on each of the burners for about 5 to 7 minutes.

Once the edges have set nicely and the pancakes have risen nicely as well, we can take a moment to inspect our work. We'll make sure that everything looks pretty good before moving forward with the next step. After giving each one a flip, making sure that everything is cooked evenly, these are going to cook for a little bit more until I think the pancake is cooked all the way through - probably another 2 minutes or so.

**The Magic of Honey Butter**

This is where things get interesting. I'm going to take one of these almost finished pancakes and rest it on another pan as I spoon a generous amount of that honey butter mixture into the hot pan itself. Once that is melted and started to bubble, I'll place the pancake back in its little caramelized honey butter bath so it can sit there and absorb and cook for a while.

I'm going to repeat this process with the remaining two pancakes until the honey and butter have still caramelized and it's started to turn a nice dark brown color. Then, I'll flip each of these pancakes and give the other side another generous helping of this honey butter mixture, letting that caramelize in the pan with the pancake itself so that each of these pancakes can not only absorb some of that flavor but also develop almost like glazy shell on the outside.

**The Final Result**

I'm going to keep flipping the heat, continuously keeping it on a very low heat. I need to flip this and you know make sure that it is constantly moving so that none of the caramel Burns in the outside but once this is all looking good and all of the sides of our pancakes have been looking pretty glazed, we're going to take these out and set them on a plate.

This is fascinating - the color is so much more different than having just honey and butter placed on a normal pancake. I really like the dark caramel shell made out of honey and butter that each one has individually. It's almost like you get this beautiful crust on the outside and the soft side is from the pancake being fluffy itself.

**A New Level of Pancake Experience**

Instead of having a fluffy pancake that you dip and soak in some honey and butter, it's almost like you get this beautiful pastry in a way. It's not necessarily better than a beautifully doused honey butter stack of pancakes; it's just a little bit different where the flavor is a little bit more concentrated. You don't have to work to try and make sure that some of your pancake has more honey - every bite is created very, very equal.

The edges do have the best part, which was an added bonus. This entire process of adding the honey and butter in the pan with the pancakes did take quite some time - probably 15 to 20 minutes in total if you want to do this at home. I think it's worth a shot; I really like doing pancakes this way now because it makes it more fun.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello there welcome back to another episode of anime with alvid where today we're going to be making the honey butter pancakes from Demon Slayer after seeing these being eaten and served in the most recent season I couldn't help but want to make it myself because the show made it look so so so good now MIT who makes these pancakes has a lot of bees in her residence so it only makes sense that we acquire local honeycomb and local honey for this recipe just in advance wanted to say thank you to bees you guys are great keep keep doing the thing all right let's get started shall we this episode is sponsored by bombus aka the most comfortable socks I've ever tried and while they're comfy the best part is that for every item purchased one is donated they've donated over 100 million articles of clothing so far across all 50 states so you're not just getting your new favorite pair of socks you're helping bombus donate some to someone else too feel good and do good with bombus knowing your purchase is doing some real good new customers get 20% off their first purchase just go to bombas.com babish and use code babish 20 at checkout Now the recipe for this is quite simple but we're going to do a couple variations to see if we can get the best version of this possible first whisking together two eggs then I'm going to add in about a tablespoon of local honey once our egg honey mixture is nice Incorporated we're going to get started on our dry ingredients we're going to mix 200 g of allpurpose flour with 55 g of sugar a teaspoon of salt and about a teaspoon of baking powder once that's all whx in we're going to add in 30 G of melted butter about 150 ml of milk and our egg honey mixture from earlier going to mix that together until it is nice and combine and try to avoid any big lumps breaking those up as we go now we're going to roll and squeeze in the juice of half a lime because the acid in the lime juice is going to help activate that baking powder a little bit to make things nice and bubbly now this recipe really isn't those sule style pancakes that are popular in certain parts of the world this is just more of a generally fluffy pancake that is Fluffy all the way through and hold its structure cuz in the show I think based on the visuals this was less of that Cafe style super fluffy pancakes and more of like a almost like a western style pancake stack that had a little bit of airiness to it and just because I thought it would be fun we're going to take some of this honey that is in the container from the honeycomb that we got and just throw that in as well once that is all nice and whisked in we're going to go ahead and take this another step to remove lumps by sifting this through a sit pressing that to make sure that all those little lumps kind of get crushed by those metal wires truly making sure that our batter has as little lumps as possible once that is Thoroughly passed through the SI I'm going to wrap this up with Saran RAB and let this rest outside at about room temperature this is going to rest for about an hour or so now this is something that Andrew referenced in his most recent Pancake video where he mentioned that resting the pancake batter makes a significant difference and I do have to agree it helps the batter hydrate allows the baking soda time to activate with the acid and get a little bit more Iration into the batter and just overall makes for a more even more delicious and less clumpy pancake all right now that our batter has rested and is looking smooth we're going to go ahead and move over to the stove I'm going to start with the non-stick pan this one isn't super large probably about 6 to 7 in or so and I'm going to put a little bit of butter in the bottom of the pan making sure to use a paper towel to kind of dab away any of the excess one thing that I've really found in making pancakes is that using a fat can cause certain dark spots on the pancake which are delicious but for this purpose I'm looking for more of an even smooth butt all the way through and that usually comes with little to no fat at all okay I'm going to pour in the batter just to reach about 50% of the way up the pan now this is the most important part usually people say you might need to cook pancakes hot and flip them but for this kind of pancake and to make sure that it gets the rise that it needs I'm going to cook this for about 5 to 7 minutes on the lowest heat possible on the stove cranked all the way to the right where the flame is barely visible this is almost going to cause a steaming effect where the bottom is going to cook for quite some time get some nice color but the rest of the batter is going to slowly Steam and puff up and not burn because it's on the lowest heat that we can do as you can see we've got some really really good height with this a lot of bubbles started to rise to the surface then we're going to check the edges with the spatula to make sure that any of that liquid batter isn't near the edges more is towards the center then with the nice little finesse of the spatula we're going to flip this over and pray that everything looks good now that that looks like a color I would like on a pancake usually people say the first Pancake is usually messed up and it's okay but I prefer having the first Pancake be perfect now we're going to let this cook for about another 2 minutes or so just until the other side can cook through and kind of shake the pancake until it kind of evens up by using the pan as a way to keep it circular now we're going to go ahead and transfer this to the plate while we go and make two more pancakes in the show it seems like there's about three pancakes stacked up so we're going to do two more of these the same exact way with two other pans we don't have a two of the exact same pan so these are going to turn out slightly different and I'm curious to see what that's going to look like all right after doing the same process with these yeah the color on the bottom is definitely different between these pans and one of them is slightly larger so we're going to let that one cook for a little bit more now in the show the pancakes are garnished with a generous serving of honeycomb so I'm going to take a knife and cut a beautiful square of that local honeycomb and place that right on top it's super nice it's super sticky and you can just eat it as is I definitely did off camera once we're going to finish with a pat of butter I'm going to use a blowtorch action just to make sure that the butter gets that melty goodness you get from having pancakes just being hot and steamy and once that's done we're going to give this a generous helping almost a waterfall of the local honey that we have cuz these in fact are well these are honey butter pancakes and if you do have access to all those bees in your backyard like Mitsy did I'm pretty sure honey is in a surplus this is going to get finished with a little bit of flaky salt because I think salt would really go well with this and this is our first version of the honey butter pancakes from Demon Slayer as you can see it's positively doused in Honey and butter but hey how does it taste so the texture I think is really exciting it's not dense but it's also not that crazy Iration type sort of texture you get with those sule pancakes it's just nice and soft all the way through now the flavor is really good I personally prefer honey over maple syrup I think the honey with the butter and especially the salt makes this a super super super comforting bite that makes you kind of want to go back for more but the thing with pancakes is that usually the quality of your bite is determined by luck of the draw because you could get a piece that is either dowed in syrup or you can get a little bit of that naked piece that didn't get enough attention in the back or you kind of have to take your piece and scrub the plate to get more of that delicious Syrup and Honey on there so I wanted to make a version of this that kind of almost had an even honey butter coating through out so let's see what we can do here so I've actually had a few pancakes at certain restaurants that blew my mind they kind of had this caramelized beautiful either syrup or honey or butter or some sort of texture on the outside all the way through and they weren't a saucy kind of pancake these pancakes were just as good without anything on them they had it almost like a caramel shell so I'm going to employ a technique that I learned from working at a bakery a time ago that served these caramelized French toast things we're first going to get started by making it almost a honey butter mixture by melting a stick of butter and adding in a generous scoop of Honey after supplementing that with our local honey I'm going to add in some sea salt and mix that together until we have almost like a pale fluffy honey butter spread that would probably go really well with things like fried chicken and bread and on your finger all right now we're going to cook three pancakes all at the same time as if we were at a restaurant we have three pans of all differing sizes each one is going to get a slightly little bit of butter I'm going to melt that down and use the paper towel again just to give it a thin Coating in the pan we don't want too much now

pancake and I really like the dark caramel shell made out of honey and butter that each one has individually I'm going to stack these up finish this off with another generous helping of honeycomb and some sea salt a caramelized honey butter version of the pancakes from Demon Slayer now we do need to let these cool down for about 5 to 10 minutes or so because out of the pan they are extremely hot because if you ever worked with caramel or sugar that tends to be pretty burning and we want this to cool down so that it almost develops and cools down into a caramel crust around the outside of these pancakes now this is a completely new level of pancake experience to me instead of having a fluffy pancake that you dip and soak and some honey and butter it's almost like you get this beautiful crust on the outside and the soft side is from the pancake being fluffy itself there's no liquid there's no like Saucy soaked pancake it's just almost like a delicious pastry in a way which isn't necessarily better than a beautifully doused honey butter stack of pancakes it's just a little bit different where the flavor is a little bit more concentrated you don't have to work to try and make
