English Pancakes

Growing up, we would have English Pancakes on the weekends.  My grandmother’s family was from England, and my mom had these as a child too.  The powdered sugar and bit of lemon juice made them seem like fancy crêpes, though the recipe is super simple and cooks up quickly.

Ingredients:

  • 4 Eggs

  • Pinch of salt

  • 6 Tbs flour

  • 1 Tbs butter

    Ideas for filling:

    • A small bit of lemon juice and powdered sugar

    • Whipped cream and strawberries

    • Nutella®

Directions:

  1. Beat the eggs.

  2. Add the salt and flour, then whisk together.

  3. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes (if you can).

  4. Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

  5. Pour ¼ cup of batter into the pan. Tip the pan around so there’s a thin layer of batter.

  6. Cook until the underside looks golden brown. Quickly flip and cook for 1 more minute.

  7. Remove from pan. Repeat with remaining batter, melting butter as needed.

  8. Add a bit of filling, roll up, and serve warm.
