Pancakes by a French chef

Hello ! Hello ! Today, let’s go to the US ! Whether you feel like having a brunch, a lovely breakfast or a delicious snack, we just LOVE pancake. I like them soft and lighter than air !! So, I’m sharing with you our French chef Cyril Lignac’s recipe, my favorite.

So scrumptious, you can basically put whatever you like on top of your pancake. I tried a great combo :  banana cooked with orange juice and honey. OMG !!…

You can make it simple with melted chocolate or just eat the pancake itself without topping. It is simply delicious.

My cooking advice: heat the frying pan (I use my Mineral B triple-blini pan by De Buyer), oil it and lower the stove temperature (I cook my pancakes at 7 on a scale from 1 to 9). Then you can start cooking your yummy pancakes!

Shall we get started ?
