Equipment
- Thermomix
- Kelle
- Pfanne
Zutaten
- 3 Eggs
- 300 g All-purpose flour
- 750 g Milk
- 50 g Sugar
- 30 g Oil + a little extra for the skillet
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
To serve:
- Nutella
- Fresh berries
- Powdered sugar
Zubereitung
- Add all the batter ingredients to the mixing bowl and blend for 1 minute, gradually increasing the speed from Speed 3 to 5, until completely smooth.
- Let the batter rest in the refrigerator for about 15–30 minutes.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly brush with a little oil.
- Ladle some batter into the skillet and swirl immediately so the bottom is thinly and evenly coated. Cook the pancake over medium-high heat (around level 7 out of 9 on my stovetop).
- As soon as the edges turn light golden brown, slip a spatula underneath and flip the pancake over. Cook the other side until lightly golden—this side cooks much faster!
- Repeat with the remaining batter, brushing the skillet with a little extra oil between pancakes as needed.
- Serve plain or stack 'em high with your favorite sweet or savory toppings. Enjoy!
Notes
Your Thermomix® pancake batter is ready when it flows easily off the ladle and coats the skillet smoothly without running completely wild.
If the batter feels a bit too thick, just add a splash of milk or sparkling water and blend for another 10 seconds on Speed 3.
If it's a little too thin, add a pinch more flour to the mixing bowl and blend for another 10 seconds on Speed 3.
You can keep the finished pancakes warm in the oven at 60 °C while you cook up the rest of the batch.
Made too much batter? No problem! It keeps beautifully in the fridge until the next day.
If you want to enjoy these savory—say, with smoked salmon and cream cheese—or if you just prefer them less sweet, simply skip the sugar.
