This will make 3-5 large pancakes
Ingredients
One cup flour
One tablespoon sugar
One tablespoon corn syrup (Kyero)
One egg
One teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
~3/4 – 1 cup milk, less for thicker batter
Directions
- Place the flour, sugar, corn syrup, baking powder, salt and the egg into a pan.
- Use a spoon to blend the egg into the dry ingredients.
- Add ¼ cup of milk and stir until incorporated.
- Repeat adding mild and stirring until batter is the correct thickness. Because a Basque pancake is thin the batter should be thin-similar to syrup.
- Let the batter sit for at least an hour. Overnight is better.
- The pancakes are cooked at approximately 375 degrees (medium high). Warm the griddle and make a small pancake to test the temperature.
- Pour batter onto the cooking surface. Watch as the pancake bubbles. When the edges of the pancake start to look dry flip the pancake over (approximately three minutes). It takes a little practice to determine when to flip the pancake.
- Cook on the other side for about the same amount of time.
Options:
Crepe like pancakes can be made with very thin batter and coat the cooking surface with butter.
Fruit (Banana etc) pancakes are best using thicker batter (less milk) and cooking a little longer
