Ingredients

For the pancake batter

  • 4 eggs
  • 300 ml milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 300 g all-purpose flour
  • 4 tbsp sugar + 2 tbsp honey (optional)
  • ½ tsp salt

For cooking

  • Butter

For serving (even though Carlos Sainz likes to eat them alone)

  • Syrup, honey, whipped cream, fruits or other

Instructions

For the pancake batter

  • Separate the egg yolks and the egg whites. The egg whites go into a bowl for whisking later.
  • Whisk together the egg yolks with the milk and vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar and salt. Make a well at the centre.
  • Pour the milk mixture into the centre of the dry ingredients. Use a whisk to mix these two starting at the centre and slowly incorporating the flour from the sides.
  • Whisk the egg whites until they are stiff.
  • Add about ⅓ of the egg whites to the previous mixture and use a spatula and folding motions to incorporate them. Repeat this with the other two thirds of egg whites.

For cooking

  • Preheat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
  • Add a bit of butter and spread it around.
  • Use a ladle to pour the batter onto the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes. Flip and repeat.
