But before thinking about the garnish, you still need to prepare pancake batter ! You can make it according to our recipes for 4 people, 6 people or even 8 people.

Pour avoid lumpssift the flour before incorporating it and add the liquids (milk, water or beer) gradually, mixing constantly with a whisk. If lumps persist, do not hesitate to put the dough in a blender or filter it with a sieve. Another tip: start by mixing the dry ingredients and add the eggs before incorporating the liquid. This allows you to obtain a homogeneous and very smooth dough.

Resting the pancake batter, ideally for 1 to 2 hours, allows the flour to fully hydrate and any lumps to dissolve. This guarantees a more even texture and light, fluffy pancakes. Additionally, this resting time gives the gluten proteins time to relax, preventing your pancakes from becoming too elastic when cooked. Finally, it also allows the flavors to develop for an even tastier result.

Butter is ideal for giving a subtle, delicious flavor to your pancakes, but it can burn quickly. Prefer clarified butter or mix a little butter and oil for perfect cooking. Oil, on the other hand, tolerates high temperatures better and is a practical alternative if you want to prevent your pancakes from sticking to the pan.
