Preparation
- Serving size:6.30 oz (calculated)Notes: one filled and gratinated pancake
- Temperature: 392 °F (preheated, circulating air)
- Mix together the eggs, cream cheese, protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, salt and carbonated water until you get a smooth batter.
- Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Over medium heat, heat 1/2 teaspoon of oil in a large pan or griddle.
- Add a portion of batter and let cook until the top has set and is no longer liquid, about 4 minutes. Each portion should be about 90 ml or 3/8 cups.
- Top the pancake with a slice of ham and cheese and carefully roll it up.
- Transfer to an oven-safe dish.
- Repeat adding oil, frying and rolling up the pancakes until all the batter is used up.
- While you are frying the pancakes, melt the butter in a pot.
- Stir in the cream and tomato paste and bring to a simmer.
- Season to taste.
- Sprinkle in the xanthan gum (or thickener of your choice) whisking throughout to avoid clumping.
- Cook until the sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
- Set aside and let cool. You should get a thick sauce, similar to a paste.
- Spread the sauce on the pancakes and sprinkle everything with the grated parmesan. You can also use a different cheese, for example something milder like mozzarella.
- Bake in the oven until the cheese is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle with some fresh parsley and enjoy!
- You can store the dish in an airtight container for 3 days in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave or in the oven.
