Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 egg large
  • 1 ¼ cups milk whole
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted, unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract pure
  • 1 cup white whole-wheat flour
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon butter for the skillet, melted
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, butter, and vanilla. Slowly stir in the flour, salt, and baking powder. Whisk to combine.
  2. Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat for about 4 minutes. Brush it with a thin layer of butter. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet, swirling the skillet to spread the batter evenly.
  3. Cook the pannenkoek until golden and set on the bottom, for 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip it using two wide spatulas.
  4. Cook it for 1-2 more minutes on the second side, until golden.
  5. Transfer the pannekoek to a dinner plate. Sprinkle it with brown sugar, roll it up, and serve.

Notes

  • This recipe is not low-carb or gluten-free. After transitioning to a low-carb, gluten-free diet, I created a gluten-free version using coconut flour. While certainly nontraditional, it's very good. The detailed recipe for this version is included in the post above. 
  • You can cut the frying time in half by using 2 skillets simultaneously. 
  • Just like crepes, you can make this recipe in advance. Cook the entire batch and keep them piled on a baking sheet. Then, briefly warm them in a hot oven, loosely covered with foil so they don’t dry out. Finally, sprinkle them with sugar, roll, and serve.
  • If you use all-purpose flour, you can use just one cup of milk since white flour absorbs less liquid. You’ll know the batter is right if it spreads easily in the skillet.
  • You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. Reheat them in the microwave, covered, at 50% power.
