Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whip egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form, ~5 minutes. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks with 2 tbsp sugar until pale.

  2. Step 2

    Fold flour into yolks, then add melted butter and milk. Gently fold in egg whites in two additions until just combined.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low. Butter lightly, then pour batter into 3-inch circles.

  4. Step 4

    Cover with a lid and cook for 4 minutes until the bottom is set and golden. Flip gently and cook uncovered for 2 minutes more.

  5. Step 5

    Stack pancakes on a plate and top with strawberries and blueberries. Serve immediately while centers still jiggle.
