AMERICAN PANCAKES RECIPE
It would be best to use an excellent Teflon pan so that the mixture doesn’t stick when it’s cooking.

Step-by-step preparation
- Put all the ingredients together in a medium bowl and mix well with an electric hand mixer.
- You can also put everything in a glass blender. The result will be the same, and well, it is faster.
- You should be left with a slightly thick mixture but easy to stir with a spoon. If you need to thicken or water down the mix, you can add more milk or flour as needed.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat, preferably Teflon, and add a drop of oil or a little butter.
- Take a soup spoon and use it as a measure. 1 spoon = 1 pancake.
- Fill your soup spoon with the flour, egg, and milk mixture and carefully pour it into the pan, making sure it is distributed in a circular pattern.
- Let it cook until you start to see bubbles forming. This is the sign that it is already cooked on one side.

IDEAS TO ACCOMPANY HOMEMADE PANCAKES
Once they’re done, you can get super creative and pair your pancakes with just about anything you can think of. Here are a few ideas:
Bees honey: nutritious and delicious, one of the best ways to pair homemade pancakes.
Maple syrup: possibly the most popular way to eat them. Suppose it is Canadian maple, all the better!
Peanut butter: I bet you didn’t think of that!
Strawberries: one of my favorite fruits to eat in pancakes. You mix them with maple syrup, and it’s even more delicious.
Kiwis: just like strawberries, the characteristic flavor of kiwi contrasts very well.
