Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Separate the egg whites and yolks into two bowls. Whisk yolks with milk and vanilla extract, then gradually sift in flour and baking powder until smooth.
  2. Beat egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form, gradually adding sugar until glossy.
  3. Gently fold one-third of the egg whites into the yolk mixture, then fold in remaining whites until no streaks remain.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet over low heat and lightly grease it. Spoon batter in small rounds (or stack) and cover with a lid. Cook for about 4 minutes on one side before gently flipping.
  5. Serve warm with your choice of toppings.
