Pancake

Pancake is one of the family's favorites. It is very easy to prepare and only require simple ingredients that you may already have in your kitchen. It is perfect for your merienda with hot coffee. Pancake is great if you will serve with apple syrup but typically, we are applying butter and white sugar on top. In this recipe, I used dusted sugar on top with butter. I even used apple syrup and chocolate syrup Since I have all of these in my kitchen.

Ingredients:

Batter Mixture

1  cup            All Purpose Flour

1/2 cup          Fresh Milk

2 pcs.             Egg Yolk

1 1/2 tsp.       Baking Powder

1/2 tsp.          Salt

3 tsp.             Sugar

Icing Mixture 

3 pcs.            White Egg

3 tbsp.           White Sugar

Procedure:

Step 1

Beat egg yolk into a large mixing bowl then add 3 teaspoons of sugar gradually. Once the sugar and  egg yolk are combined completely, add salt,all purpose flour, and fresh milk. Mix them well until get the desire consistency. 

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl,  beat egg white by adding 3 tablespoons of white sugar slowly. You can beat it manually but it would take longer time. So, I used electric hand mixer by setting it to medium at first beating until the egg whites resembles a fluffy cloud. Now, turn the mixer speed up then add sugar for every 10 seconds until 3 tablespoons of sugar is finished. Continue mixing until the mixture become thick , glossy, smooth and look a snow drift.

Step 3

Combine icing sugar to the batter mixture gradually until all are incorporated.

Step 4

In a pan over low heat, pour small amount of oil and distribute it on the surface. Pour the batter mixture then cover for 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 5

Turn the other side when it is golden brown. Serve while hot with apple syrup. You can apply white sugar and butter on top. In my recipe, I used powdered sugar and apple syrup. I even served it with chocolate syrup.
