Main Pancake Batter:
- 3 large eggs, yolks and whites separated
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp cream of tartar (optional, helps stabilize egg whites)
- Butter or oil, for greasing the pan
Toppings:
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
- Fresh strawberries, sliced
- Fresh mint leaves
- Maple syrup or whipped cream (optional)
- Main Pancake Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk egg yolks, milk, flour, and baking powder until smooth.
- Prepare Meringue: In another bowl, beat egg whites (with cream of tartar if using) until frothy. Gradually add sugar and beat to stiff peaks.
- Combine Batter: Gently fold the meringue into the yolk mixture in three parts, being careful not to deflate.
