This pancake tower is such a simple treat to make, but a great alternative to heavy cream cakes especially in summer when you generally prefer keeping things a little lighter.
There is nothing better in summer than thin and crispy pancakes topped with fresh seasonal berries and good vanilla bean ice cream. This used to be my favourite treat during summer in Finland – and the best pancakes were made on a bonfire using a huge cast iron skillet. We would gather around the fire and could not wait to get our hands on the pancakes as soon as they were ready.
This pancake tower is such a simple treat to make, but a great alternative to heavy cream cakes especially in summer when you generally prefer keeping things a little lighter. I have used frozen berries, but you could certainly use fresh berries too, they would be even better! And instead of ricotta, you could use quark (if it’s available where you are) or even thick Greek yoghurt that has been drained for an hour or two. 
I absolutely love this idea! So creative and you can’t go wrong with pancakes :)
this looks great
I love pancakes year round. But not for breakfast but for dinner, it’s my special treat. Your recipe sounds fantastic and a great change from the typical one. Thanks for sharing they look so yummy!
I love this idea, thanks for sharing! yummy for summer and my kids would love them!
What is white spelt flour? The only spelt I’ve seen locally is more like whole wheat.
Hi jh,
In Australia they sell ‘white’ spelt flour and ‘whole’ spelt flour. Therefore I specified I used the ‘lighter’ spelt flour for these pancakes. However, you can use either spelt flour to make these pancakes.
