EGGLESS PANCAKES RECIPE

Eggless Pancakes recipe

Prep Time: 10 mins    |  Cook time: 15 mins    |  Makes: 6

Ingredients

All purpose flour/ plain flour(Maida) - 1 cup

Milk - 1 cup

Brown or white sugar - 1 tblsp

Salt - 1/2 tsp

Oil - 1 tblsp

Baking powder - 1 tblsp

Butter and honey - For topping

Method

Mix flour,baking powder, salt and sugar with the whisk. Add milk along with oil and mix gently. Set aside for 10 minutes.1-pancakes-recipe

After 10 minutes again give it a mix and heat an iron skillet (dosa pan) until it gets hot. Switch off the stove and leave it for 5 minutes. Again switch on the flame and put it in medium flame. Grease with butter and pour one big laddle full of batter carefully. Do not spread.2-pancake-recipe

Wait until bubbles pop over the pancakes and the colour changes and flip carefully. Cook the other side for a minute and transfer to serving plate. 3-pancakes-recipe

Notes

Iron skillet (Iron dosa pan) works best to get golden brown colour and even cooking.

If you want you can cover and cook after flipping, this makes it even more soft and locks the moisture.

If you heat the pan really hot and make the pancake immediately, the pancakes turn dark brown in colour. That’s why I have heated the pan and switched off for a while to bring the temperature medium. ( I saw this in a video in you tube)

If the pan is too hot, the pancakes will have edges like flower. that is it wont be a perfect circle. So make sure to keep the heat medium.

Use a big ladle, so that for all the pancakes, you use only one and so all of them would be on same size.

You can use whole wheat flour as well, but experiment with the milk volume as it may take more.

You can add cinnamon or vanilla essence to make it more flavorful.

You can make this same with non diary milk and make it VEGAN.

Serve hot with generous butter topped and honey or your favorite sauces like caramel, butterscotch or even maple syrup. Smells divinely and stays soft even after cool down. Soft, spongy, fluffy to handle, you would love it!
