Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 150 ml Low-fat milk
- 100 g All-purpose flour
- 25 g Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 30 g Raisins
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 1 for greasing Cooking spray
- 1 tsp Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
- 100 ml Apple sauce (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, low-fat milk, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth.
Gradually add the flour into the egg yolk mixture, whisking to combine into a smooth batter. Ensure there are no lumps.
In a separate large bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until fully incorporated, taking care not to deflate the mixture.
Lightly coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Pour the batter into the pan and sprinkle the raisins on top. Cook until the bottom is golden brown and set, about 4-5 minutes.
Using a spatula, quarter the pancake and carefully flip each section.
Cook for another 4 minutes until the other side is brown and cooked through.
With a spatula, gently break the cooked pancake into bite-sized pieces.
Continue to cook, tossing occasionally, for 2 more minutes to ensure all pieces are golden brown.
Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired, along with apple sauce on the side as a dipping choice.
