Ingredients

2 Eggs
25g of All-Purpose Flour
25g of Granulated Sugar
30ml of Whole Milk
Few Drops of Water

Instructions

Separate the egg whites from the yolks.
Whisk the egg yolks.
Add the sifted flour and the milk to the yolks, mixing until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until very stiff. Gradually add the sugar while whisking to stabilize the mixture.
Once the egg whites are very firm, gently fold them into the egg yolk mixture using a spatula to maintain the fluffy texture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and grease with a little neutral oil.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the skillet, creating small mounds.
On each mound, add a bit more batter for extra volume.
Add one tablespoon of water to the skillet and cover it with a lid to steam the pancakes.
Cook for about 3 minutes, then carefully flip them over, cover, and continue cooking for an additional 3 minutes, adding a few more drops of water if necessary.
Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate and dust with icing sugar.
Enjoy your fluffy pancakes immediately!

Notes

Tips

Use room temperature eggs for better volume when whisking.
Make sure the skillet is adequately heated to ensure even cooking.
For added flavor, consider mixing in vanilla extract or lemon zest into the batter.
