Who wouldn’t love that moment when the delicate aroma of butter, vanilla and freshly prepared pancake mix begins to waft through the apartment? Our homemade pancakes are exactly the type of recipe that people pass down from generation to generation. Simple, affordable, quick and above all – they work perfectly.

This recipe is perfect for a weekend breakfast, a sweet dinner or as a little reward after a hard day. And the best part is that even a complete beginner can handle it.

What you will need:
250 g plain flour
500 ml milk
3 eggs
40 g melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon sugar (optional – for sweeter pancakes)
A pinch of salt
How to proceed:

  1. Start with the liquid ingredients
    Beat the eggs in a bowl, add the milk and vanilla. Mix with a whisk or hand mixer until smooth.
  2. Add the dry ingredients
    Sieve the flour, add the sugar and a pinch of salt. Gradually stir into the liquid mixture so that there are no lumps. The result should be a soft, smooth dough.
  3. Butter for aroma and softness
    Finally, pour in the melted butter and mix well.
  4. Let the dough rest
    Set the mixture aside for at least 20 minutes. The pancakes will be more elastic and will not tear.
  5. Baking
    Lightly grease the pan, pour a thin layer of batter with a ladle and spread it evenly by tilting the pan.
  6. Flip
    Bake for about a minute on each side, until the pancake is golden brown.
  7. Serving
    Jam, chocolate, fruit, cottage cheese, nuts… there are no limits to your imagination.

Final tip
Pancakes are great both hot and cold. If you make a larger batch, you can keep them under a lid or a light towel so they don’t dry out.

I hope you have as much fun as we did – and most importantly, enjoy them with the people you love. 💛🥞
