Simple ingredients for these fluffy pancakes

• Eggs : medium caliber. It is thanks to the eggs that your pancakes will be fluffy. It is important that they are at room temperature so that the pancakes rise well.
• Granulated sugar : this is what I use here but you can substitute with brown sugar. This recipe is intentionally not very sweet because it allows you to add sweet toppings such as spread, jam, etc. to these soft pancakes.
• Milk : whole or semi-skimmed, at room temperature. You can replace it with vegetable milk if necessary.
• Flour : wheat or spelt (I use T55). It gives the pancakes some consistency.
• Yeast chemical : it allows the dough to rise during cooking.
• Salt : it is a flavor enhancer.

My tips for perfectly successful pancakes

• Gently fold the egg whites with a spatula: this is important to keep the puffy and light side of these fluffy pancakes.
• Let the dough rest for 20 to 30 minutes : this allows the dough to acquire the ideal texture, not too liquid so as not to spread too much during cooking.
• La pan should be hot already when pouring the batter.

To reheat them, you have to put them in the microwave for a few moments, or even in your toaster if it is high enough.

You want to freeze them? It's possible too! To prevent your fluffy pancakes from sticking together, simply wrap them individually in cling film or separate them with baking paper, then place them in an airtight container in the freezer. To reheat them, place them directly in the microwave for a few seconds.

• KitchenAid Electric Mixer

Ingredients 

• 2 medium eggs
• 2,5 cs granulated sugar dose to adapt according to your taste
• 150 g milk
• 140 g all-purpose flour
• 1 cc baking powder
• 0,5 cc vanilla extract
• 1 pinch of salt
• Butter for the pan

Prepare in advance 

• In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and milk. Then add the flour, baking powder, powdered sugar and vanilla. Whisk until the mixture is homogeneous, without lumps.
• Separately, beat the egg whites until stiff with the pinch of salt.
• Gently fold the egg whites into the previous mixture with a spatula. The dough should be fluffy and light. Cover with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes to optimize the texture.
• Lightly butter a very hot non-stick pan (medium heat, adapt according to your equipment). Remove excess butter with absorbent paper if necessary.
• Using a small ladle or ice cream scoop, pour a little batter into the center of the pan, forming a circle 11 cm in diameter (I put the equivalent of 2 ice cream scoops). The dough will spread very slightly.
• Cook for about 1 minute, that is, until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges harden a little. At this point, turn the pancake using a spatula and brown for 1 minute on the other side.
• Place each cooked pancake on a plate and cover with aluminum foil while you make all the pancakes: this keeps them warm.
• Enjoy them still warm with the toppings of your choice: knob of butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, spread...

Notes

These pancakes are best on D-Day. If necessary, they can be kept for 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Put them in the microwave for a few seconds to warm them up or in your toaster.
