1️⃣ Prepare the Base Batter
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with milk and vanilla.
Sift in the flour and baking powder.
Mix until smooth and lump-free.
2️⃣ Make the Meringue (The Secret to Fluffiness)
In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy.
Gradually add the sugar in 3 parts while beating.
Continue until stiff, glossy peaks form.
This step creates the light, airy texture.
3️⃣ Fold Gently
Add the meringue to the yolk mixture in 3 parts.
Fold gently using a spatula.
Do not overmix — keep as much air as possible.
4️⃣ Cook Slowly
Heat a non-stick pan over very low heat and lightly grease it.
Spoon the batter into tall rounds (stacking slightly upward).
Cover with a lid and cook for 4–5 minutes.
Carefully flip and cook another 4–5 minutes covered.
Low heat is essential so they cook through without burning.
5️⃣ Serve
Dust with powdered sugar and add fresh berries on the side.
