Home-Made Savoury Crispy Pancakes with Thermomix

Home-Made Savoury Crispy Pancakes with Thermomix 
Today I'm giving you the recipe for Savoury Crispy Pancakes with Thermomix!

Thanks to my irreplaceable Thermomix the procedure is very simple and fast enough, and the result is excellent! As "guinea pigs" the first time I chose some of my friends, who gladly lent themselves to the experiment ... after killing two each, they said that my sofficini had nothing to do with the packaged ones. A real satisfaction! :-)

They are also very good to do in the oven. Indeed, according to some, they are even better baked than fried: they are certainly lighter! My grandchildren, who hardly ever taste anything at the table, asked me again the other night, so much so that now every time I make them I freeze someone in the fridge :-)

Other appetising deep-fried food are the Deep Fried Round Zucchini in Batter, the Deep-Fried Stuffed Zucchini Flowers in Batter, the very good Salmon and Potato Croquettes or the traditional Gnocco Fritto from Emilia Romagna.

With a 10 cm diameter pastry cutter, cut many discs of dough.

Inside each disc, place a spoonful of the stuffing you have set aside.

Tips


For this recipe I opted for a classic filling, with ham and cheese. But since the filling is homemade, you can indulge yourself in filling the sofficini as you like. ;-)
As an alternative to the oven, you can cook the sofficini in a pan.

You can freeze the sofficini before cooking them. First you spread them on a sheet of parchment paper on a plate, spaced and freeze them. Then, once they are frozen, you can put them in a plastic bag. This way they don't stick. You can then put them directly in the frozen oven.br />
