Ingredients
-
250 ml milk
-
1 large egg
-
1.5 tablespoons sugar
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
2 tablespoons sunflower oil (plus extra for frying)
-
240 g all-purpose flour
-
Honey, for serving
Directions
-
Warm the Milk: Heat the milk gently for about 1 minute until slightly warm (not boiling).
-
Make the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, egg, sugar, salt, and sunflower oil. Gradually add the flour and stir until a smooth, homogeneous batter forms.
-
Fry the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly coat with oil. Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
-
Serve: Serve the pancakes hot, drizzled generously with honey.
Tips & Variations
-
Extra Fluffy: Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes before frying.
-
Flavor Boost: Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the batter.
-
Healthy Swap: Use whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor and extra fiber.

Serving Ideas: Top with fresh fruit, nuts, or a dollop of yogurt along with honey.
