Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • additional butter for frying for golden-brown exterior
  • to taste jam for serving

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, crack the 3 large eggs. Use a whisk to beat them until they are well blended and slightly frothy.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons of salt. This will ensure there are no lumps in your batter.
  • Add 1 cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of melted butter to the beaten eggs. Whisk until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously. This will help create a smooth, lump-free batter.
  • Place a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling it around to create a thin, even layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown.
  • Using a spatula, gently flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side. Repeat this process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of jam and any additional toppings you desire.

Notes

  • For a festive touch, serve with whipped cream and fresh berries.
