For 3 serving

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
a pinch of salt

Preparation procedure

In a bowl, mix the milk, egg, sugar and a pinch of salt.
Gradually add the flour and whisk until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
Let the batter rest for a while (about 5–10 minutes) so it thickens slightly.
Heat a little oil in a pan. Use a ladle to pour an amount of batter according to the pan size and spread it into a thin layer.
Fry the pancake on both sides until golden brown.
Serve the finished pancakes with marmalade, fruit, jam, or as desired.

Conclusion

These cup-measure pancakes are a practical and quick recipe for everyday use. They don’t involve complicated steps or a large number of ingredients. The advantage is that you can adapt them to taste — sweet, with fruit, or savory. I recommend serving them fresh, still warm, so they are truly delicious.
