Nutella Stuffed Mini Pancakes

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

2 eggs ~ separated

1 cup milk

2 tbsp butter ~ melted

Cooking spray

Nutella

Directions/Instructions:

1. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder & salt in a bowl.  In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, then add the milk & butter.   Add into the flour mixture & whisk until well combined but still lumpy.
2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.  Add 1/3 of the egg whites to the batter & gently fold to combine.  Add the remaining egg whites & gently fold until just combined.
3. Spray a takoyaki pan with cooking spray on a stove set to medium heat.  Once the pan is warm, spoon the batter into each well.  Dollop about 1 tsp of Nutella into the center of each well.  Spoon enough batter on top to seal the pancakes closed.
4. Once the surface begins to bubbles, flip over the pancakes using two skewers, so that the cooked side is facing up.  Cook until the bottom turns golden brown.
5. Transfer the pancakes to a plate & enjoy!
