German Pankcakes

This recipe is one that I picked up from my mum and, before her, my grandma. It is the easiest and quickest way to make super-thin, delicious pancakes that can be eaten with both savoury and sweet fillings. You will need:

• Around 250g of wheat flour
• 1-2 eggs
• Milk
• A pinch of salt

Place the flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the egg(s), salt, and mix lightly. Now begin pouring milk over the blend while mixing continuoulsy with either an electric mixer or a wooden spoon. The batter is finished when it is quite liquid and begins throwing bubbles.

Leave to rest for a few minutes. Meanwhile, heat a large pan with some butter or a few drops of oil. When the oil is very hot, pour some batter in the pan with a ladle and let the batter run to cover the whole pan immediately. Bake until light brown, then flip over to the other side and bake until brown again.

Finished pancakes can be kept warm in the oven until you've finished the bowl.

I love them especially with sugar and cinnamon, apple sauce; various jams and Nutella. Enjoy!
