- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- Butter or oil, for cooking
- Powdered sugar and fresh fruit, for serving
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks with milk and vanilla extract until combined. Sift in the flour and baking powder, and mix until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until glossy.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture in thirds, being careful not to deflate the batter.

- Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with powdered sugar and fresh fruit.
