Ingredients
Scale
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter, for cooking
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until light and creamy.
Add the milk, vanilla extract, and mix well.
Gradually sift in the flour and baking powder, mixing until just combined.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually add sugar and whip until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture in three parts.
Heat a non-stick pan over low heat and add butter.
Pour in a ladle of batter and cover the pan; cook for about 6-7 minutes until the bottom is golden.
Flip and cook the other side for another 5-6 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with syrup, fresh fruit, or powdered sugar.
Notes
Be careful not to overmix the egg whites; they should be gently folded in to maintain airiness.
Adjust the cooking time according to your stove’s heat settings to prevent burning.
