Japanese pancakes, also known as hotcakes or souffle pancakes, are a popular breakfast or brunch dish that is characterized by its light and fluffy texture. Unlike traditional pancakes, Japanese pancakes are made with whipped egg whites, which gives them their signature airy texture. The result is a pancake that is soft, fluffy, and jiggly. Served with a variety of toppings, such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, or maple syrup, Japanese pancakes are a delicious and satisfying treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Steps:
- Whisk together the flour, confectioners' sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
- Whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla and egg yolk in a medium bowl until combined.
- Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are a few lumps). Stir one-third of the beaten egg whites into the flour-milk mixture. Then gently fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined (take care not to overmix).
- Lightly spray the inside of four 3-inch-wide-by-2 1/2-inch-high ring molds with nonstick cooking spray
- Coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. Put the prepared ring molds in the middle of the skillet and fill each with 1/2 cup of batter (it should fill each ring mold about halfway). Cover the skillet with the lid and cook until the batter rises to the tops of the ring molds and is golden on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Release the bottom of the pancakes with a spatula. Grasp the sides of the ring molds with tongs to stabilize them and then carefully flip. Cover and cook until golden on the other side, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and remove the mold. Serve with butter and maple syrup. The pancakes should be eaten before they deflate.
- Lightly spray the ring molds and coat the skillet with nonstick cooking spray and repeat the cooking method with the remaining batter.

Tips:
- Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start mixing. This will help the batter to come together smoothly and evenly.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
- Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax and make the pancakes more tender.
- Cook the pancakes over medium-low heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
- Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping them too often will make them dry and tough.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Japanese pancakes are a delicious and versatile breakfast or brunch option. They are light and fluffy, with a slightly sweet flavor. They can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream. With just a few simple tips, you can make perfect Japanese pancakes at home.
