Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 cup flour, 3 eggs, 0.75 cup milk, 2 tbsp sugar, and 0.25 tsp salt until smooth, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Melt 2 tbsp of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the batter and cook until the bottom is golden and set, about 4-5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Flip the pancake in pieces using a spatula, then add the remaining 1 tbsp butter. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the pieces are golden and cooked through.

  4. Step 4

    Use two spatulas to tear the pancake into bite-sized shreds. Cook for 1-2 more minutes, stirring, until the shreds are caramelized and slightly crispy.

  5. Step 5

    Serve warm, dusted with extra sugar or a dollop of jam if desired.
