Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 250g all-purpose flour
- 300ml whole milk
- 4 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 pinches of salt
- Vegetable oil (for greasing the pan)
Preparation:
Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the milk until well combined. Gradually add the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt, mixing continuously until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter using a spatula, ensuring not to overmix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil. Pour 2 to 3 small ladles of batter into the pan, spacing them apart to allow for even cooking. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden brown.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat the process until all the batter is used. Serve these delicious homemade pancakes hot, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with chopped pecans for an irresistible breakfast or brunch treat.
Enjoy your fluffy, golden pancakes and make your mornings unforgettable!
