Yeast Mixture
Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, combine 250 milliliters (1 cup) of warm milk with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 7 grams (2.5 teaspoons) of instant yeast.
Mix gently and cover with plastic wrap or a towel. Let it rest in a warm place for 20 minutes until frothy.
Step 2
After 20 minutes, add the remaining warm milk, 4 tablespoons of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil to the yeast mixture.
Gradually mix in the flour until you achieve a very thick batter. This may require slightly more or less flour depending on the brand.
Step 3
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes. You can place it in the oven that has been preheated to 50°C (122°F) and then turned off.
Step 4
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Pour some of the batter onto the skillet and cover it with a lid.
Cook for about 2 minutes, then flip the pancake and cook without the lid until it is cooked through. This will result in fluffier pancakes.
Step 5
Once cooked, spread with butter and serve with your favorite jam. Enjoy your delightful yeast pancakes!
Servings
Equipment
A sturdy mixing bowl is crucial for combining your ingredients. Opt for a large one to let the batter rise comfortably.



Use a whisk for easily mixing your ingredients together. It helps in incorporating air into your batter, which makes for fluffier pancakes!



A non-stick skillet is ideal for achieving golden brown pancakes without sticking. Make sure to preheat it before pouring in your batter for the best results!
A lid is essential to cover the skillet while cooking the pancakes. This helps them to steam and puff up beautifully.
Variations
Vegan Option: Replace milk with almond or oat milk, and omit any dairy butter, opting for a plant-based alternative. 🌱 Embrace these variations and enjoy a fabulous pancake feast with your loved ones!
Faq
- What should I do if my batter is too thick?
If your batter appears too thick, add a little more warm milk gradually until you achieve a gooey consistency without making it runny.
- How can I tell when my pancakes are ready to flip?
When you see bubbles forming on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, it’s time to flip! Aim for a golden brown color.
- How do I store leftover pancakes?
Allow pancakes to cool completely, then stack them between parchment paper and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Can I freeze pancakes?
Absolutely! Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. They can last for 1-2 months. To serve, just reheat in the microwave.
- What variations can I add to the batter?
Try adding vanilla extract, cinnamon, or lemon zest for a flavor boost. Or mix in chocolate chips or nuts for a fun twist!
- Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose?
Yes, whole wheat flour can be used for a healthier option, but it may result in denser pancakes, so consider mixing it with all-purpose flour.
