Ingredients:
- Flour: 250g (all-purpose flour for a classic texture)
- Eggs: 4 (large, at room temperature for better mixing)
- Milk: ½ liter (whole milk for richness, or substitute with plant-based milk)
- Salt: 1 pinch (enhances flavor)
- Sugar: 2 tbsp (granulated sugar for a subtle sweetness)
- Melted Butter: 50g (adds richness and flavor)
Preparation:
1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Whisk until well blended.
2. Add Eggs: Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and crack in the eggs. Begin whisking gently, gradually incorporating the flour mixture.
3. Incorporate Milk: Once the mixture thickens, slowly add the cold milk while continuously whisking. Ensure there are no lumps for a smooth batter.
4. Add Butter: Stir in the cooled melted butter until fully combined. The batter should be fluid but not runny. If too thick, add a splash of milk.
5. Cook Pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease if necessary. Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and swirl to coat the surface. Cook until the edges turn golden brown, then flip. Cook for an additional minute until both sides are golden.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream.
These homemade pancakes are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or any time you crave something sweet and comforting. Enjoy!
