Pancakes

pancakes

This is what I make, when I want pancakes to be special - a cake made from pancakes, jam and decorated with gummy candy.

Ingredients (for 2 people):
3 eggs
6 - 7 tablespoons flour
1 -2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup of milk
jam - whatever you have at hand or like best
powdered sugar
small gummy candies
oil for the skillet

Instructions:

Mix flour and sugar in a bowl, add egg and half of the milk. With a wire whisk or mixer mix for until you have a smooth dough. Then slowly add more milk until the dough is easily running from a spoon - you will need a rather liquid dough to make thin pancakes.

Heat a bit of oil in a skillet, add enough dough to make pancakes about 2 - 3 mm high (you'll need to experiment about how much dough you need, it depends on the size of your skillet). Lightly brown pancake on both sides, put on a plate.

While the next pancake is baking, thinly spread some jam on the finished one. Repeat until there is no more dough left. Don't spread jam on the top pancake, but dust it with powdered sugar and decorate with gummy candy.
