Prep Time:10 mins

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 120 grams all-purpose flour
  • 250 milliliters milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 15 grams granulated sugar
  • 30 grams unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon butter or oil for greasing
  • 10 grams powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them thoroughly. Add the milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract to the eggs, and whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. The batter should have a thin and smooth consistency. If needed, strain the batter through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter or oil, ensuring an even coat.

Step 5

Pour about 60 milliliters (approximately 1/4 cup) of batter onto the hot pan, swirling the pan immediately to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.

Step 6

Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the underside is golden brown. Use a spatula to gently flip the pancake and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary between pancakes.

Step 8

Serve the Swiss Pancakes warm. They can be garnished with powdered sugar or filled with your choice of sweet or savory fillings such as fruit, jam, Nutella, whipped cream, or cheese.
