47 days 'til Easter, It's pancake day...
2 large eggs
2oz plain flour
5oz milk
pinch of salt
pinch if sugar
Cooked until puffy inside.
Served with freshly squeezed juice of Sorrento lemons and caster / granulated sugar.
As chef, mine came last - A tad charred but nice and crisp!
Looks very good. I have a couple questions. Since there's no baking powder in that recipe, do the eggs do all the heavy lifting?
I've never baked with ounces (cups/spoons before, now grams), so am never clear whether 5oz of liquid is 5/16 of a pound, or 5 fl oz.
Cheers Moe. These pancakes are really crêpes and so they are very thin, with no leavening required.
Even though I am a Millennial, I have a throw back to imperial measures. It's all by weight and not volume so a conversion to metric would be easy... The funny part is I used electric scales to measure ounces!
2oz flour = ~57 grams
5oz milk = ~142 grams
Method:
Prepare ingredients and sift flour. Whisk eggs until homogenous, add flour and whisk until smooth, add milk and mix well. Pass through a sieve to ensure no lumps and to remove any foam that may have developed. Store in a fridge for a few hours and stir prior to use.
Lovely pancakes! But wrong time of the day (for my diet) to read your post and see the pictures :D
BTW, just for my education: are this pancakes or crepes? At least for me they look more like what I call crepes (as a non english speaking person)
Thanks sparkfan. To be fair most of the calories come from any accompaniments.
Colloquially known as pancakes but these are indeed crêpes.
A heart-shaped pancake! And you're also a millenial!
Very nice and looks just perfect. I'm now in Singapore, the land of good food, but legit drooling.

I must have a pan similar to the one you used. What does it measure across please? Also, does the recipe make 1 pancake? Thanks. cp3o
Seen as below...
One?! I made 4 large pancakes from the recipe. Only need enough batter to coat the pan for crepes. :)
Cheers,
Michael
Thanks Lin.
The heart shaped pan just happened to be hanging out in the cupboard unused... I think from last year when pancake day was right next to Valentines.
I know next to nothing about the Singapore baking scene, I look forward to finding out more... ;)
