Ingredients

  • 2 Egg yolks
  • 3 tbsp Milk
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla essence
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 2 Egg whites
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • Little oil to grease the pan

Instructions

  • First separate the egg yolks and whites from 2 large eggs in 2 different bowl.
  • Add the milk, sugar, a pinch of salt, vanilla essence and the vegetable oil to the yolks and give them a mix.
  • Then sift the flour and the baking powder to the egg mixture, mix everything well until it is smooth with no large lumps and keep it aside.
  • Now using an electric mixer start beating the egg whites on medium speed. After about 2 minutes when the egg whites start to thicken up add 1 tbsp sugar to that and beat them on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes more or until stiff peaks form.
  • Add the egg whites to the pancake batter in 3 parts and carefully fold them into the batter until just incorporated, making sure not to break air bubbles.
  • Place a nonstick pan over low heat and grease the pan with a very little oil.
  • Pour 2-3 spoons of batter at the first place, then wait for 2 minutes and add another spoon.
  • Now cover and cook for 5 minutes until the center of the pancake is slightly jiggly, then with a spatula release the bottom of the pancake and carefully flip it over.
  • Cover and cook for another 5 minutes on this side.
  • The pancake is ready! Make the rest following the same process, or you can make 2-3 together in the same pan.
  • Dust them with icing sugar and serve them with your favorite fruits, syrup, whipped cream or ice cream.
  • Enjoy!
