Ingredients

Scale

3 eggs

1¼ cups milk

¾ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon white sugar

½ teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon butter (for greasing)


Instructions

1. Beat eggs until thick and lemon-colored, 3–5 minutes.

2. Stir in milk until fully incorporated.

3. Sift flour, sugar, and salt into a bowl. Add to the egg mixture.

4. Mix until batter is smooth and lump-free.

5. Heat a griddle over medium and grease with butter.

6. Drop tablespoonfuls of batter onto the griddle. Spread to make thin pancakes.

7. Cook until light brown, about 1–2 minutes per side.

8. Flip and cook the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.

Notes

Use real butter for greasing the griddle—avoid margarine.

Great with lingonberry jam, powdered sugar, or berries.

Leftovers can be refrigerated or frozen for later use.
