Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Place the egg whites in a mixing bowl suitable for beating and the yolks in a separate medium bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder until well combined.
- Add the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and half of the sugar (100g) to the bowl with the egg yolks. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
- Pour the wet ingredients mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the batter light.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites on medium speed until they start to foam. Gradually add the remaining 100g of sugar while continuing to beat. Increase the speed to high and continue to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold one-third of the beaten egg whites into the batter to lighten it. Then carefully fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined. The batter should be fluffy and smooth. Be cautious not to deflate the egg whites.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over low to medium-low heat. Lightly grease with a bit of butter or non-stick cooking spray.
- Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, dollop generous portions of batter onto the skillet. You can use a metal ring mold for a more uniform shape if desired.
- Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil to help the pancakes cook evenly and rise higher.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes on the first side, until the bottom is golden brown and bubbles start to form on the surface. Gently flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the pancakes are cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, powdered sugar, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
Tips:
- Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature, especially the eggs and milk. This helps with better mixing and achieving the desired texture.
- Separate the egg whites and yolks carefully. Make sure no yolk gets into the whites to achieve perfectly whipped meringue.
- When whipping the egg whites, make sure your mixing bowl and whisk are clean and dry. Any grease or moisture can prevent the whites from reaching stiff peaks.
- Fold the whipped egg whites into the batter gently to avoid deflating them. Use a spatula and fold in a circular motion.
- Cook the pancakes on low heat. High temperatures can cause the outside to burn while leaving the inside undercooked.
- Cover the pan with a lid while cooking the pancakes. This helps them rise higher by trapping steam.
- Serve immediately after cooking to enjoy the full fluffiness. Soufflé pancakes tend to deflate as they cool down.
Congratulations! You've mastered the art of making extra fluffy soufflé pancakes. These delicate, airy pancakes are sure to impress your family and friends. Enjoy them as a special breakfast treat or even as a light dessert. Don't forget to experiment with your favorite toppings for an extra touch of deliciousness.
