AMERICAN PANCAKES BY ELIAS (THE FINNISH GUY)

5 dl wheat flour (a little less is okay but absolutely no more than exactly 5 dl)

3 teaspoons (15 ml) baking powder

1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla sugar

Half a teaspoon (2-3ml) salt

1,5 dl oat milk (I’ve used rainbow brand, iKaffe would work well too)

2 dl (200g) sour cream (kermaviili), at least q10% fat (I don’t have yet any good vegan alternative for this, but there are at least lactose free brands…)

3 normal size eggs (again no good vegan alternative that I had tried yet)

3 tablespoons (45-50ml) demerara sugar (fariinisokeri)

0,5 dl melted butter or margarine or oil, each give a bit different taste to the final product

1. Mix the wheat flour, baking powder, vanilla sugar and salt in one container
2. Mix the oat milk and sour cream in a second container
3. Whip the eggs and demerara sugar into a fluffy foam in a third container
4. Melt the butter (again in a separate container…)
5. Add the flourmix and milk/sourcreammix carefully in turns to the foam, mix it up well but not too hard. Try to keep it even without the flour forming any lumps.
6. Finally add the melted butter to the dough and mix it up good
7. Fry the pancakes on a pan with butter or oil (a little less than 1 dl of dough for one pancake)
8. Enjoy with butter, syrup, berries, powdered sugar or salty toppings
