today , I'm gonna try out and show you this cooking gadget for flipping pancakes .
The idea is , you cook seven small pancakes inside each one of these rings , then simply flip them all over to cook the other side .
It's made of silicon , and it just sits in the pan like this .
You need to make sure it sits flat on the base of the pan so the mixture doesn't run out underneath .
If your pan is too small , you'll find it lifted up off the base and the mixture will just run out .
So before you start , do make sure it sits flat on the pan .
I put my pancake ingredients in a bottle and gave it a good shake to make them extra .
If you want the recipe , there's a link in the description .
Warm up the pan and I'm gonna cook mine on a relatively low heat .
I just tip some of the mixture into each one and left it to sit there for a few minutes to cook .
Then I tried lifting up the gadget to flip them , and this is what happened .
As you can see , it was a bit of a disaster .
The mixture stuck to the gadget , and some of the pancakes also stuck to the pan .
So I cleaned up the mould in the pan and decided to try again .
However , this time I'm using some butter to see if that will stop things sticking .
I greased up the pan , and I also greased up the mould .
I sat it in the pan to try it out again if you need to , you can push the mould down onto the pan like this to stop it curling up or lifting off the base , which lets the mixture run out underneath after a couple of minutes .
I gave it a test and it looked a lot more promising , so I decided to give it a try again .
It took a little bit of shaking to get them to fall out , but this time it actually worked pretty well .
They had just started turning nice and golden , and I was able to flip them all together without any problem .
And after another minute or so , they are ready to serve .
You can tip them straight out onto a plate , and they're a really fun uniform size .
I like to serve mine with maple syrup and maybe some fruit on the side , and they taste amazing .
Next , I wanted to try using it to make some mini omelettes .
So I broke three eggs into a jug .
Yeah , added a splash of milk , some pepper and salt , chopped up some herbs to put in and gave it all a whisk .
Then I grated some cheese and added that , too .
I used some butter to grease up the pan and the mould again let it warm up and spoon in some of the mixture into each ring .
I tried to hold the mould down to stop it running out of the bottom , and I poured in the rest of the mix , then let it slowly cook .
Unfortunately , I found the mixture did leak out despite trying to stop it , and it ran all around the pan .
I left it to cook for a few more minutes and tried flipping it over .
As you can see , it was a bit of a disaster .
Again , you can see the mixture just leaked out all over the pan , so I don't think it really had a chance .
I just flipped these over with a spatula and cooked as normal .
Yeah , it might not look too pretty , but it tasted great .
