You will need a flat pan and a bowl.

Yields12 Servings
Prep Time10 minsCook Time20 minsTotal Time30 mins
 140 g plain flour
 200 ml whole milk
 100 ml water
 2 eggs
 25 g melted butter
 1 pinch salt
1

Sift the flour in to a bowl and add a pinch of salt. Make a well and add the eggs in the well. Then mix the milk and 100ml of water together. As you whisk the eggs slowly add some of the milk water mixture. Whisk until the batter is smooth. Let it rest for 30 minutes.

2

Melt the butter and once it's slightly cool (or warm) mix in to the batter.

3

Heat the pan over a medium heat and very lightly butter the pan.

Using a ladle, pour roughly 2 tbsp of batter into the pan and swirl it around so the bottom of the pan is evenly coated. You want to use just enough batter to make a delicate, lacy pancake. Cook the pancake for about 45 secs on one side until golden and then using a palette knife, flip the pancake over and cook the other side for about 30 secs until it freckles.

4

Slide the pancake out of the pan and either serve immediately or stack on a plate with baking parchment in between. Continue until all the batter is used up.

You can have it with chocolate, honey, syrup or strawberries!
