Classic Peking duck pancakes get a festive twist with a cranberry-infused hoisin sauce, perfect as a delicious and elegant Christmas Day appetizer.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). If using pre-cooked Peking Duck, place it in the oven to warm through for about 15-20 minutes. If using shredded cooked duck meat, warm it in a pan on the stove over medium heat.
While the duck is warming, prepare the cranberry hoisin sauce. In a small bowl, combine the hoisin sauce and cranberry sauce. Mix well until evenly combined.
Steam or warm the Peking Duck pancakes. If steaming, lightly brush each pancake with sesame oil to prevent sticking. Steam for 5-7 minutes until soft and pliable. Alternatively, warm them in a microwave for 30-60 seconds or in a dry pan over low heat.
Thinly slice the warmed duck meat. If using pre-shredded duck, ensure it is warm.
Assemble the Peking Duck Pancakes: Spread a thin layer of cranberry hoisin sauce on each pancake. Add a few slices of duck, scallions, and cucumber.
Fold the pancake in half or roll it up like a burrito.
Serve immediately and enjoy your festive Peking Duck Pancakes!
