English Pancakes
A classic pancake recipe from 1888.
Ingredients
- 1 pint Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tablespoonful Sugar
- 1 cupful Flour
- 1 teaspoonful Royal Baking Powder
- 1 cupful Cream
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- as needed Powdered sugar
Instructions
- 1Sift the flour, salt, and Royal Baking Powder together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar. Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk and cream, mixing until a thin batter forms.
- 2Heat a small, round frying pan over medium heat. Melt a little butter in the pan. Pour about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of batter into the pan, tilting the pan to spread the batter evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
