Ingredients
- 2 eggs at room temperature
- 250g plain flour, sifted
- 300ml lukewarm milk
- 15g sugar
- 5g salt
- 60 g melted butter
- 15ml oil
- 15g fresh yeast or 5g dried yeast
Method
- STEP 1Melt the butter in the microwave.
- STEP 2Warm the milk very lightly not to kill the yeast (20°C). Mix the yeast with the milk and stir to dissolve it.
- STEP 3Separate the whites from the yolks. In a large bowl, mix the sifted flour, warm milk and yeast, oil, salt, sugar and egg yolks and mix with a fork. When it is smooth, add the lukewarm butter.
- STEP 4Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and wait for 2 hours or for the volume of the dough to double.
- STEP 5While your pan heats, beat the egg whites. The egg whites are at room temperature. The pan needs to be extremely hot. After that, decrease the hob to medium heat.
- STEP 6Carefully incorporate the egg whites to the batter. Try to keep a maximum of air in.
- STEP 7Grease the pan with butter or oil and form a small pancake. It needs to cook 3 to 4 minute on each side Bonne dégustation!!
