Simple cup recipe for pancakes

Ingredients for approx. 6 pieces:

• 2 owner
• 1 mug flour
• 2 mug milk
• 1 pinch of salt
• Optional: 1 tablespoon of sugar or some vanilla sugar
• Butter wax or sunflower oil for baking

Preparation:

1. Put the flour, salt and sugar in a bowl and stir. Then add eggs and milk, mix with a whisk or mixer into a smooth dough.

2. Leave the pancake dough rest for about 15 minutes.

3. Heat a coated pan with a little butter or oil. Then put a trowel dough in the pan and swing it lightly so that the dough is spread thinly. Bake until golden brown on both sides.

Tipp:For hearty crepes, simply put some grated cheese or ham directly on the still damp dough in the pan and bake along.

So the pancakes stay warm

If you bake several pancakes and do not want to serve them immediately, there are simple tricks so that they stay warm and soft:

Keep warm in the oven: Place the finished pancakes on a plate and in the oven at about60–70 GradKeep up the top/bottom heat. So that they do not dry out, you can cover them with aluminum foil.

Stack on a plate: A simple method is to put the pancakes directly on top of each other on a plate and to cover with a second plate or a converted pot lid. Due to the warmth of the fresh pancakes, they all stay warm together.

Warm briefly in the pan: If the pancakes have cooled a bit, you can just warm them up again in the hot pan without additional fat.

So they stay warm and delicious until everyone is at the table and can enjoy.
