For Both Versions

• Use room temperature eggs. If melting the butter in the microwave, use 20 to 30 second blasts to melt and not boil. Let the butter cool before using.

Blender Recipe

Step 1. Mix and Blend

• Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend into a thin and smooth pancake batter.

For The Bowl and Spoon Method

• Dry Ingredients: Add the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder (dry ingredients) into a bowl. Make a 'well' in the middle of the bowl and set aside.

  Wet Ingredients: Now beat the eggs and milk in a bowl or jug until well combined. Add the melted and now cooled butter and the vanilla. Mix together.

  Combine dry and wet ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients gradually into the 'well' of the dry ingredients and start pulling the ingredients together mixing until you have a smooth thin pancake batter.
  1 ¼ cups cake flour or AP flour (all purpose), ½ teaspoon salt (regular table salt), ½ to 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 to 2 tbsp/s granulated sugar, 2 eggs, room temperature, 2 tbsps butter, (30 grams) melted, 2 cups milk, ½ teaspoon vanilla essence/extract or paste

For All Methods: Cook The Pancakes

• Heat a non stick pan over medium-low heat and when the pan is hot, lightly brush the pan with either melted butter or vegetable oil.

  Pour ¼ to ⅓ cup measure, of enough batter into a thin layer into the center of the pan and gently swirl the pan to spread the batter out a bit.

  The edges will cook first, you will notice they dry up a little, tiny bubbles will appear on the surface of the batter, flip and cook the other side. It takes about a minute to cook and just a couple second on the 2nd side.

  Continue until you have used up all the batter. If storing any remaining batter, see the storage and reheating notes below.

Step 4. Serve

• Serve immediately while still warm with cream, cinnamon sugar and honey. If adding cream, wait 5 minutes for them to cool (so the cream doesn’t melt) and then fill them up. You can use store-bought whipped cream in a can or you whip your own at home.

Pannekoek (Pancake) Serving

• Sprinkle cinnamon sugar all over and serve with fresh lemon juice.

For Homemade Whipping Cream

• Use a tub (250ml) of thick cream, a tablespoon or 2 of sugar and a drop (½ tsp) of vanilla. An electric stand mixer works best for this or a hand held mixer. You can do it by hand but it will take some muscle. Whisk until you have a soft yet firm whipping cream.
