Best 8 Thin Egg Pancakes Recipes

THIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift in the flour, salt, and sugar (if using). Make a well in it and crack in two eggs. Add in about 1/4 cup of milk. Whisk the eggs together, slowly incorporating in the flour.
• As the batter starts to thicken, slowly continue to whisk in the rest of the milk. The batter should go from lumpy to smooth. Whisk in the oil. You can also use an electric mixer on low speed to bring everything together.
• Preheat a 10 or 12-inch non-stick skillet or crepe pan on medium-high heat. Make sure the skillet is nice and hot before you start making the pancakes.
• Melt a bit of butter on the pan and swirl it around so it evenly coats the pan. Alternatively, melt the butter in a small bowl and brush it on using a silicone basting brush (see post for why I prefer to use a brush).
• Pour on the pancake batter and quickly swirl the pan around so the pancake batter spreads into a thin layer. I use a crepe spreader to get the perfect round and thin pancake (see post for why this is a handy tool).
• Cook for about 30 - 45 seconds, until the top of the pancake is no longer liquid. Gently shake pan to loosen the pancake. Carefully flip the pancake over and cook for an addition 30 - 45 seconds.
• Slide the pancake onto a plate, and serve warm. Top with a squeeze of lemon and a generous shake of powder sugar.

MOMOO'S NORWEGIAN THIN EGG PANCAKES

Steps:

• Break a dozen eggs into a blender jar and blend until just barely foamy.
• Gradually add the 2 cups of flour.
• Blend on high until the batter smooths out.
• You may have to add a bit more flour to accomplish this.
• Add the evaporated milk and blend on low until thoroughly mixed.
• Add the water sugar and vanilla: blend on low until well mixed.
• To cook the pancakes, melt a lump of butter or margarine on the bottom of a well-seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat.
• You may have to turn the burner down if the pancakes start getting too dark.
• Ladle between 1/2 to 2/3 cup batter into the heated skillet.
• Quickly and carefully rotate it so that the batter evenly covers the bottom of the pan.
• The pancake is ready to flip when its surface becomes dull.
• I use a metal icing spatula to get underneath and flip it over.
• The second side needs just a few seconds to cook, then the pancake can be removed to a waiting plate.
• Proceed with the next pancake.
• The skillet will need to be rebuttered about every 5 pancakes or so.
• I keep the waiting pile of pancakes warm on a plate covered with a clean dishtowel.
• To serve, butter the pancake and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
• Roll up, cut into bite-sized sections and EAT!
• Once you get used to doing this, you develop a rhythm.
• I can cook an entire recipe's worth of these (around 24 pancakes) in about 15 minutes.
• Recipe yield can be variable depending on the size of the skillet used.
• These look a lot like crepes, and are cooked in essentially the same way, but are quite a bit more substantial on account of the number of eggs used in the recipe.

THIN EGG PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a bowl, beat eggs until foamy. Add milk. Stir in flour and sugar just until blended. Add butter, salt and pepper. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into a hot greased 8-in. skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm. Repeat; stack pancakes with waxed paper or paper towel in between.

THIN AND LACY PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla in a large bowl until combined. Add the flour, sugar and salt; whisk until the batter is smooth, with no lumps.
• Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat; lightly brush with butter. Add 1/4 cup batter; swirl the skillet to coat the bottom with a thin layer of the batter. Cook until set on top and lightly browned around the edge, about 1 1/2 minutes. Gently lift and flip the pancake with a rubber spatula; cook until just browned on the other side, about 15 more seconds. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter (do not brush the skillet with more butter). Fold into quarters and serve with butter and syrup or jam.

PERFECT PANCAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl.
• Make a well in the centre and crack 2 eggs into the middle.
• Pour in about 50ml from the 300ml of semi-skimmed milk and 1 tbsp sunflower oil then start whisking from the centre, gradually drawing the flour into the eggs, milk and oil. Once all the flour is incorporated, beat until you have a smooth, thick paste. Add a little more milk if it is too stiff to beat.
• Add a good splash of milk and whisk to loosen the thick batter. While still whisking, pour in a steady stream of the remaining milk. Continue pouring and whisking until you have a batter that is the consistency of slightly thick single cream.
• Heat the pan over a moderate heat, then wipe it with oiled kitchen paper.
• Ladle some batter into the pan, tilting the pan to move the mixture around for a thin and even layer. Quickly pour any excess batter into the mixing bowl, return the pan to the heat.
• Leave to cook, undisturbed, for about 30 secs. If the pan is the right temperature, the pancake should turn golden underneath after about 30 secs and will be ready to turn.
• Hold the pan handle, ease a palette knife under the pancake, then quickly lift and flip it over. Make sure the pancake is lying flat against the base of the pan with no folds, then cook for another 30 secs before turning out onto a warm plate.
• Continue with the rest of the batter, serving them as you cook or stack onto a plate. You can freeze the pancakes for 1 month, wrapped in cling film or make them up to a day ahead.
