Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 250 milliliters milk
- 2 large eggs
- 50 milliliters lukewarm water
- 15 grams unsalted butter (melted)
- 10 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, lukewarm water, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to create a smooth, lump-free batter. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Pour about 60 milliliters (1/4 cup) of batter into the pan, tilting and swirling the pan quickly to spread the batter evenly into a thin, circular layer. Pour out any excess batter if necessary.
Cook the pancake for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip using a spatula and cook for an additional 30-60 seconds until done.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan lightly between pancakes as needed.
Serve the Palacsinta warm, filled with your choice of sweet fillings such as jam, Nutella, or sweetened cottage cheese, or enjoy them savory with mushrooms or ham. Roll or fold them before serving.
