Ingredients
2 large eggs, whites and yolks separated
¼ cup sugar
½ cup milk
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Butter, for cooking
Maple syrup and fresh fruits, for serving
Instructions
Prepare the Batter: Mix flour and baking powder in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and milk until smooth. Combine with the flour mixture until just incorporated.
Beat the Egg Whites: Add cream of tartar to the egg whites and beat until frothy. Gradually add sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
Fold and Cook: Fold one-third of the meringue into the yolk mixture until partially combined. Carefully fold in the remaining meringue until just blended. Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat, brush with butter, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, cover, and cook for about 5 minutes on each side.
Notes
Temperature Control: Keep the heat low to cook these pancakes thoroughly without burning.
Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh baking powder and eggs for the best rise.
Serving Suggestion: Serve immediately with maple syrup and a side of fresh fruits for a delightful breakfast.
