Ingredients
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 240 ml Skim milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 large Egg whites
- 120 ml Carbonated water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 unit Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Whisk together to ensure there are no lumps in the flour.
Step 2
In another bowl, beat the egg and egg whites until lightly frothy. Add the skim milk, carbonated water, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
Step 3
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to form a smooth and lump-free batter. The carbonated water helps in making the Palacsinta light and airy.
Step 4
Allow the batter to rest for 15 to 30 minutes. This will help the flour absorb the liquids and result in a better-textured pancake.
Step 5
Preheat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray.
Step 6
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into the pan. Swirl the pan immediately to spread the batter into an even, thin layer.
Step 7
Cook each side for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side until golden.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining batter, applying cooking spray between each Palacsinta.
Step 9
Serve warm with your choice of low-fat fillings, such as fresh fruits, a dollop of low-fat yogurt, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
