Classic Pancakes

Select your favorite glass, coffee mug, or tea cup to use as your measurement guide for the entire recipe.

Pour 1 glass of milk and 1 glass of water into a medium mixing bowl.

Add 1 glass of flour, 1 egg, 1 bag of vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt to the liquids.

Mix the ingredients thoroughly with an electric hand mixer until the batter is completely smooth and free of lumps.

Melt a small knob of butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat.

Pour a ladleful of the batter into the hot pan, tilting the pan slightly to spread it into a thin, even circle.

Cook the pancake until the bottom is lightly golden and the top looks set, then flip it over.

Cook the second side for about 30 to 60 seconds until golden brown.

Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate.

Repeat the process, adding a tiny dot of fresh butter to the pan before pouring each new pancake, until all the batter is used.

Serve with your favorite sweet toppings, such as fruit or syrup.
