- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup butter, melted, plus more as needed
- 1 recipe Summer Berry Compote, recipe follows
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cups mixed berries, cleaned and trimmed
- 1/2 cup sugar, plus more if desired
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced, plus more if desired
- Pinch salt
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chiffonade
Method
- Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together over a large piece of parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract together until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the bowl and whisk until a thick batter is formed.
- Whisk in the melted butter.
- Heat a nonstick griddle or pan over medium heat.
- Add a teaspoon of butter and swirl the pan to coat the bottom.
- Ladle 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan to form a pancake.
- Cook until you see bubbles break the surface of the pancake and the underside is golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Then carefully flip the pancake to finish cooking on the other side, another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Transfer the pancakes to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm (or place in a preheated 200 degree F oven, covered) and continue to make the pancakes until all of the batter has been used up, wiping out the pan or griddle with a paper towel after each use.
- Serve with warm Summer Berry Compote.
- Summer Berry Compote:
- In a large nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
- Add the mixed berries, sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice.
- Saute the mixture, stirring often, until the berries begin to break down and release their juices, around 5 minutes.
- Add the pinch of salt and check for seasoning (add more sugar and lemon juice, if desired).
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the basil leaves.
- Serve immediately with warm pancakes.
