Palacinky (Czech Pancakes) step by step

1. Mix the flour, milk, egg and salt all together. Im using the measurement cup to measure the milk first, then tare the scale and measure the flour weight..

2. Preheat your pan and use one small spoon of oil to prevent pancake sticking to the pan (Im using Olive Oil for that). Pan of my choice is the Teflon coated one for it needs less oil to prevent stickiness..

3. Pour part of the mixture in preheated pan. Cover some 1/3 of the center of your pan with the mixture and then make it as thin as possible using what ever skill or tool you have..

4. Flip the pancake when it changes color and then up to your taste. Finished product should be golden-brown..

5. Repeat step 2 before each new pancake..

6. Finished pancakes may be served with jams, yoghurt, honey… Try strawberry or blueberry jam in combination with a whipped cream. For fancy coffee (dessert) look use a bit of cacao powder to coat the whipped cream ;) You may also use a ketchup, ham and/or cheese for the salty variant. Be creative └(^o^)┘.
