these are like little crepes - and kids love their delicate texture! My 25 year old daughter still makes these - she called them special pancakes when she was little - heating the milk and melting the butter makes All The Difference in how tender this dough is!
Ingredients:
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons kerry irish gold salted butter
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 -2 tablespoon butter (for frying)
Directions:
1. Heat together milk and butter in a saucepan on medium low heat until butter is melted.
2. Remove from burner and let cool slightly.
3. Add 2 eggs.
4. Blend dry ingredients and add.
5. Spoon out into melted butter in a hot skillet or griddle.
6. Turn very quickly - AS SOON AS bubbles form on top; these should be only lightly brown.
7. the first 2 or 3 usually don't come out the best -.
8. serve with real maple syrup or maple sugar - or with just plain sugar.
9. you can substitute 1/4 tsp of lemon juice if you don't have baking powder on hand.
10. you can pour 1/4 cup of batter into a non-stick pan, coat the bottom, and then flip quickly [remembering that it is better to undercook these for delicacy and maximum tenderness] - if your flip isn't perfect, these are Just As Good if they are crumpled up.
