Ingredients

• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 500 ml Milk
• 3 large Eggs
• 15 grams Granulated sugar
• 1 pinch Salt
• 15 ml Vegetable oil (or melted butter)
• 1 as needed Additional oil or butter (for greasing pan)
• 1 as desired Optional fillings (e.g., jam, Nutella, fresh fruit, cheese, ham)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

Gradually add the flour while alternating with the milk, whisking constantly to create a smooth, lump-free batter.

Step 3

Stir in the vegetable oil or melted butter to further smoothen the batter.

Step 4

Cover the batter and let it rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate fully.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick frying pan or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of oil or butter.

Step 6

Pour a ladleful (approximately 1/4 cup) of batter into the pan, swirling it quickly to coat the bottom in an even, thin layer.

Step 7

Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden brown.

Step 8

Flip the palachinka carefully with a spatula and cook for an additional 30-60 seconds on the other side.

Step 9

Remove the cooked palachinka from the pan and place it on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, stacking the palachinki as they cook.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature, filled with your choice of sweet or savory fillings. Common options include jam, Nutella, powdered sugar, fresh fruits, cheese, or cured meats.
