Notes
This recipe yields 10 pieces of pancakes.
The nutritional value for reference is for 1 piece of pancake.
Reminder:
1 Mix the batter until just combined, do not overmix to avoid activating the gluten.
2 Different brand of plain flour absorbs water differently, the thickness of batter made according to the above recipe might be different and you need to make some adjustment accordingly.
3 Just coat the cooking pan with a very thin layer of oil, if there is too much oil, the surface of pancakes will not look nice (You may skip this step if using non-stick pan).
4 The surface of first pancake is usually not that beautiful (the surface of pan has more oil), the following pancakes will have no problem.
