German Pancakes, No. 3
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 3/4 cup of sifted flour
- 1/8 teaspoon of baking-powder
- pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons of rendered butter
- powdered sugar
- lemon juice
Instructions
Beat the yolks of the eggs until very light, then add milk and stir in flour, baking-powder, salt, and lastly, just before frying, add the stiffly-beaten whites of eggs and mix well together. Put on fire an iron skillet with a close-fitting top; heat in rendered butter; when very hot, pour in enough of the batter to cover the bottom of the skillet, cover at once with the top, and when the pancake is brown on one side, remove the top and let it brown on the other side. Take it up with a perforated skimmer, lay on a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar and some lemon juice. Serve at once. Pancakes must only be made and fried when ready to be eaten, as they fall from standing.
