German Pancakes

(Serves ~1-2; makes ~5-6)

• Ingredients
  • 250g flour - can use maybe 1/4 or so whole wheat flour for making it healthier
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • Oil for frying
• Instructions
  • Mix flour and salt together in a bowl
  • Mix in milk slowly, taking care to avoid clumping
  • Mix in eggs (it may help to mix them separately and break the egg yolks first)
  • Make the pancakes by always dumping a ladle of batter into a frying pan, then tilting it around to make the batter cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Notes
    • These pancakes are more like French crêpes than the fat American ones.
    • The batter has to be quite runny for it to work properly. You may even need to add more milk.
    • If you're using a non-stick pan, you shouldn't need to add oil after every pancake, just always after making a few. They turn out nicer with a little oil, though.
