Pancakes (American Style)
serves 2
ingredients:
wet:
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 180g milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
dry:
- 150g plain flour
- ¼ tsp bread soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt (3g)
- 30g sugar
- 1 tbsp protein powder (optional)
to finish:
- 1 tbsp butter, melted
directions:
mix the egg, milk and vanilla extract in a bowl. in another bowl add the flour, bread soda, baking powder, salt, sugar, protein powder and whisk.
gradually add the wet mix to the dry. only barely combine the two, leaving some lumps is the ideal texture. when mixed through, add the melted butter and stir once more.
leave for 5 mins while you heat a pan on medium. add some spray oil and butter. add about a ladle of batter per pancake and cook until golden brown on both sides. flip when bubbles form and the edges look set.
notes:
for a buttermilk-style pancake, add 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar to the milk.
