Weekend Brunch Spread
Ingredients
Steps
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, milk, and egg into a batter and cook mini-sized pancakes.
~8 min
Make mini sandwiches with ham, cheese, and lettuce between the bread slices, then cut in half.
~5 min
In a pot, warm the tomato sauce (or corn soup base) with the milk over low heat.
~5 min
Why: Warming it slowly over low heat keeps the milk from separating.
Season the soup with salt and pepper and ladle it into a small bowl.
~2 min
Arrange the mini pancakes, mini sandwiches, and soup together on a large plate.
~3 min
Top the pancakes with maple syrup, butter, and your favorite fruit to finish.
~2 min
Watch out: Trying to make all three components at once easily gets chaotic — warm the soup first and keep it hot while you prepare the pancakes and sandwiches.
Tips
- —
Plating three items together on one plate gives it that weekend brunch café feel.
- —
A corn soup base makes the soup faster and richer.
- —
Keep everything mini-sized so you can enjoy all three items in balance.
Storage
Store each component separately and reheat just before plating.
