Preparation time: 15 minutes
Baking time: 20 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4-6

Ingredients:

For the pancakes:
- 200 g of flour
- 500 ml of milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- a pinch of salt
- 1 packet of vanilla essence or 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- oil for greasing the pan

For the raspberry pudding:
- 1 packet of raspberry pudding (approximately 40 g)
- 500 ml of milk (for preparing the pudding)

Preparation:

1. Preparing the pancake batter
Start by beating the eggs together with the sugar and salt in a large bowl. Use a whisk or mixer to achieve a smooth mixture. Then add half of the flour and mix well to avoid lumps.

2. Adding the milk
Gradually add the milk to the egg mixture while continuing to stir. This step helps to dilute the batter and achieve a smooth consistency. Once the milk is incorporated, add the remaining flour and vanilla essence (or vanilla sugar), mixing until the batter becomes smooth and fluid. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

3. Cooking the pancakes
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil. Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan, swirling it to evenly cover the bottom. Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes until the edges turn golden and bubbles appear on the surface. Flip the pancake to the other side and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, making sure to grease the pan with a little oil for each pancake.

4. Preparing the raspberry pudding
In a saucepan, add 500 ml of milk and bring it to a boil. When the milk starts to boil, add the contents of the raspberry pudding packet and stir vigorously to avoid lumps. Continue cooking according to the package instructions, stirring constantly, until the pudding thickens. Once ready, remove the pudding from the heat and let it cool.

5. Filling the pancakes
Once the pudding has cooled, take a pancake and place a generous amount of raspberry pudding in the center. Fold the pancake in half or roll it up, depending on your preference. Repeat the process for all pancakes.

6. Serving
Serve the raspberry pudding pancakes immediately, garnishing them with fresh fruit or a drizzle of raspberry syrup for added flavor and color. You can also sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top for an elegant appearance.

Practical tips:

- Pay attention to the consistency of the batter: If the batter is too thick, the pancakes will turn out dry. If it's too thin, they will tear. An ideal consistency is that of thin sour cream.
- Dairy-free option: You can replace the milk with plant-based alternatives (e.g., almond or soy milk) for a vegan version.
- Sweetening: Adjust the amount of sugar according to your preferences. If you prefer less sweet desserts, you can reduce the sugar in the batter and add more fresh raspberries when serving.
