Why You'll Love This:
- Elevated Egg Ratio: The secret to their incredible fluffiness lies in using more eggs and separating the yolks from the whites.
- Delicate Lemon Infusion: Just a few drops of lemon juice not only add a subtle flavor but also aid in achieving that perfect, airy lift.
- A Unique Breakfast Experience: Ideal for those special mornings where you crave something different and delightful.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 2-3 drops of lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons of milk (30 ml)
- 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour (24 g)
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch (12 g)
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar (22 g)
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- A pinch of salt
Pro Tips:
- Be gentle with the egg yolks to avoid overmixing.
- Ensure the whites are completely free of any yolk.
- Whip the whites well for a stable, airy structure.
- Fold the yolks in carefully to keep the batter light.
- Work with the batter promptly for the best texture.
- Cook with the lid on to ensure thorough cooking.
- Embrace the slightly richer egg flavor, or adapt a classic pancake recipe using this method for a more familiar taste.
Method:
- Separate the egg yolks and whites meticulously. Chill the whites. Mix yolks with milk. Sift and combine dry ingredients into the yolk mixture.
- On the lowest heat setting, grease a preheated pan lightly. Beat the egg whites, adding lemon juice and sugar gradually, until stiff peaks form.
- Carefully fold in the yolks using a spatula. Place the batter in a piping bag. Pipe generously onto the pan, or use a spoon for dollops. Use parchment paper for support if making them tall.
- Add a bit of water to the pan's empty spaces, then cover. Cook on low for 4-5 minutes until ready to flip, then another 5 minutes covered. Adjust time for smaller sizes.
- Keep any undercooked edges on heat a little longer.
