American Style Pancakes

Here's a quick and easy recipe for American style pancakes. I only use 50g of sugar in the recipe because pancakes are usually eaten with a sweet topping, so it's better to cut back on the sugar. You could even use no sugar at all and just eat it with fruits if you really want to cut the calories. :)

Ingredients:

• 300g of flour
• a little bag of baking powder
• a small bag of vanilla sugar or vanilla essence
• 50g of sugar
• 300ml of milk
  
• 50g of butter
• 2 eggs
• some oil for baking

How to make it:

1. Sieve the flour, the baking powder, the sugar and vanilla sugar in a large bow and mix with a whisk.
2. Melt the butter in a pan on a low heat.
3. Meanwhile, break the eggs in another smaller bowl, and give them a stir.
   
4. Add the eggs, the butter, and the milk to the sweetened flour, and mix well. You should get a thick batter, a bit like waffle batter.
5. Put some oil in a medium hot pan. With a ladle, spoon in one scoop of pancake dough and let it bake on one side. You can turn the pancake when you see bubbles appear on the top. It's slow to use only one pan, so you may want to use two pans or a baking plate if you have one to speed up the process.
   
6. Serve with fruits, jam or syrup.
