Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter
- Mix the Dry Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine 175g (1 1/2 cups) of 00 flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 sachet of vanilla sugar. Stir the ingredients together until well mixed.
- Whisk the Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 5 tablespoons of yogurt, 1 large egg, and 2 tablespoons of oil until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Combine the Mixtures:
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a whisk or spoon until you get a smooth, lump-free batter. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough.
2. Cook the Pancakes
- Heat the Pan:
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour a small amount of batter into the pan to form small, round pancakes, about 2-3 tablespoons of batter per pancake.
- Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes on one side, until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
3. Serve
- Garnish and Enjoy:
- Once all the pancakes are cooked, sprinkle them with a little sugar while they are still warm for a touch of sweetness.
- Serve immediately, either plain or with your favorite toppings like honey, jam, fresh fruit, or a dollop of yogurt.
Tips for Success
- Keep the Heat Moderate: Cooking the pancakes over medium heat ensures they cook evenly without burning.
- Customize Your Pancakes: You can add a handful of chocolate chips, fresh berries, or chopped nuts to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
- Serve Warm: These pancakes are best enjoyed warm, straight from the pan, but they can also be reheated in the microwave if needed.
Conclusion
These Soft Yogurt Pancakes are a quick and delightful treat that you can easily make with simple ingredients. Fluffy, light, and full of flavor, they’re perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even a dessert. Enjoy them with your favorite toppings and savor every bite!
