Ingredients
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup 1% low-fat milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Add the eggs and blend well with a whisk.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
- Pour 3 tablespoons of the batter into a heated 8" or 10" nonstick skillet, sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Tilt the pan quickly to spread the batter. Cook until the pancake is brown on underside (about 45 seconds; edges will begin to dry). Flip the pancake and brown the other side. Continue until all the batter is used.
- Fold or roll thin pancakes and serve with fruit spread, jam or syrup. If desired, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of ricotta or cream cheese for a filling.
