1
Prepare the Pancake Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2
Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, ube halaya, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
3
Combine Ingredients
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
4
Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
5
Prepare Lemon Ube Condensed Milk
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of condensed milk, 2 tbsp of ube halaya, and the juice of 1 lemon. Stir until well combined.
6
Serve
Stack the pancakes on a plate, drizzle with lemon ube condensed milk, and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Garnish with toasted cereal.
