Dorayaki — どら焼き
Cuisine: Japanese · Origin: Japan
Dorayaki is a traditional Japanese confection consisting of two soft, spongy pancakes sandwiched together with a sweet red bean paste filling. The pancakes are made from a simple batter of flour, eggs, sugar, and baking powder, cooked individually in a pan until golden brown. The filling typically uses azuki bean paste (anko), either smooth or chunky depending on regional preference. This beloved snack has been popular in Japan since the Edo period and remains a staple of Japanese street food culture and convenience stores. Dorayaki is often enjoyed with tea and is particularly favored by children. The name derives from 'dora,' the Japanese word for gong, referencing the pancakes' round, flat appearance. Modern variations include matcha-flavored pancakes, chocolate fillings, and seasonal fruit versions, though the classic red bean version remains the most iconic and widely consumed.

The name 'dorayaki' comes from 'dora,' the Japanese word for gong, because the two pancakes supposedly resemble the round, flat instrument when stacked together.

「銅鑼燒」這個名字來自日文的「銅鑼」，意思是鑼，因為兩片煎餅疊在一起的樣子據說像這種圓扁的樂器。
