Preparation:
Start the cake by making pancakes. Take a bowl and mix dry ingredients – spelt flour, salt and xylitol. When they are all combined, add eggs, ghee or melted butter, low-fat milk and sparkling water.
Mix them all together to make a smooth dough. Put that aside, let it sit for a while and start preparing the filling.
Take a bowl and mix cream cheese, vanilla protein and vanilla Flavour Drops together. Then put the smooth cream in the fridge.
Then start preparing the pancakes. Take a pan, spray it with oil and pour an adequate amount of pancake dough on it. Fry each pancake until golden brown on each side. Once we have all the pancakes ready, let them cool. Then you can start assembling the cake itself.
Take one pancake and lay it on a plate. Apply a thin layer of cream and sprinkle it lightly with lyophilised raspberries. Then put another pancake on top.
Continue the same way until you run out of the pancakes and cream. Finally, cover the top pancake with the cream as well and decorate it with lyophilized raspberries, shredded chocolate, cashew nuts and you’re done. We recommend leaving the cake in the fridge for at least a few hours before serving it.
Our tip: If you want everything to work out evenly, calculate how many pancakes you have. Then divide the entire weight of the cream (approx. 780 g) by the number of pancakes and you will get the approximate amount of cream that you should put on each pancake. Then all you have to do is weigh each layer and everything should work out perfectly. If you want, you can keep more cream for the top part to make the cake look even more luxurious.
