Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 units large eggs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon extra oil
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, eggs, almond milk, vegetable oil, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.
Step 2
Whisk the ingredients together until well mixed and smooth. The batter should be quite thin, similar to heavy cream.
Step 3
Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to allow the gluten to develop and air bubbles to release for smoother palacsinta.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with a bit of extra oil using a brush or paper towel.
Step 5
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of the pan. Immediately tilt and rotate the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter to the edges.
Step 6
Cook until the edges start to lift and the underside is light brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the palacsinta using a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked palacsinta to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, re-oiling the pan as needed.
Step 8
Serve the palacsinta warm, filled with sweet options like jam, fruit compote, or dairy-free chocolate spread, or savory fillings such as sautéed mushrooms or spinach.
