Cooking tips

For a better dough consistency, be sure to sift the flour before adding it - this will prevent lumps.

If the dough seems too thick, you can add a little water.

Experiment with the amount of sugar - for a more dietary option, you can reduce it or eliminate it altogether.

For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of vanilla sugar to the dough.

Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Too high a temperature will cause them to burn, while too low a temperature will result in the pancakes taking too long to cook and becoming too dense.

Don't overdo it with the flour. If you add too much flour, the pancakes will be heavy and dense. It's better to start with a smaller amount and add flour gradually until you reach the desired consistency.

Use fresh ingredients. This especially applies to eggs and milk—they need to be fresh to ensure the dough turns out fluffy.
