How to Make Hungarian Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and salt until smooth. There should be no lumps.
  2. Stir in the melted butter.
  3. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, resulting in more tender pancakes.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Enjoy your delicious Hungarian Palacsinta!
