- Mix together flour and baking soda. Drop in egg yolks and mix in while adding milk. Mix til smooth.
- Let mixture sit for between 30-60 minutes.
- Beat egg whites with an electric mixer til stiff.
- Melt butter
- Add a spoonful of egg whites to the yolk/flour batter and stir gently.Add the butter in a thin stream, still stirring. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites mixing until just combined,
- Heat a non-stick frypan or swipe a butter-soaked paper towel over a normal frypan.
- Drop the desired sized portions in the pan. Turn when little air bubbles burst on the uncooked side-just a few minutes.
- Cook for about 5 seconds on the other side-DONT press with the spatula...this will keep them from rising.

Bit too eggy. Could have done with one/two less eggs. Nice and fluffy. May be better with sugar and lemon as a topping as there is no sugar in the recipe. - 18 Oct 2009
They had way to much baking soda in them for my liking. though they are easy to make, and look great. - 20 Mar 2013
Lovely! I find it hard to make little pancakes properly! These turned out perfect. Maybe i have a sweet tooth as i had to add a little extra sugar! But loved them. Try them with nutmeg too! - 28 Oct 2011 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
