Step 1
Preheat oven to 320°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Whisk egg yolks with milk, flour, 1 tbsp sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, ~3 minutes.
Step 4
Fold egg whites into yolk mixture gently in two additions, keeping it airy—do not overmix.
Step 5
Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low until melted. Pour batter into 3-inch circles (three per pancake stack).
Step 6
Cook on stovetop for 2 minutes until bottoms are pale golden, then transfer skillet to oven.
Step 7
Bake 10-12 minutes until tops are fluffy and set but centers still jiggle slightly when shaken.
Step 8
Remove from oven. Stack three pancakes per serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
