Soufflé Pancakes
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs, separated
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 tablespoon butter, for greasing, as needed
- 1/2 cup fresh berries, for garnish, as needed

In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Sift the all-purpose flour and baking powder into the egg yolk mixture. Whisk until just combined and smooth, being careful not to overmix. Set aside.

In a separate, clean, large bowl, add the egg whites and cream of tartar. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium speed until soft peaks form.

Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to the egg whites while continuing to beat on high speed. Continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form.
⏱️ 5 min

Gently fold about one-third of the whipped egg whites into the egg yolk batter to lighten it. Then, carefully fold in the remaining egg whites until no streaks remain, being careful not to deflate the mixture.

Lightly grease a non-stick griddle or large pan with butter and heat over low heat. If using pancake rings, lightly grease the inside of the rings and place them on the griddle.

Spoon generous amounts of the soufflé pancake batter into the rings (or directly onto the griddle, forming thick circles). Cover the griddle with a lid and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden brown and the pancakes have risen significantly.

Carefully flip the pancakes (and remove rings if used) and cover again. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the griddle as needed.
