How to Make Sardi's French Pancakes

  1. Crack 2 large eggs into a mixing bowl.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon of melted unsalted butter to the eggs.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour until just combined.
  5. Slowly pour in 1/2 cup of milk, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
  6. Heat a lightly oiled non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. (Use butter or a neutral oil like canola).
  7. Lightly butter the hot pan or griddle with each pancake.
  8. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
  9. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  10. Keep buttering the pan lightly between pancakes to prevent sticking.
  11. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as lingonberries, fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup. Enjoy!
