Ayres Pancake Recipe

OK, for everyone asking about the Ayres pancake recipe, here it is (converted to the metric system and lack of french ingredients)

80 g de beurre
50 cl de lait
100 g de sucre
l'équivalent de 480 ml de farine avec levure incorporée ( il paraît que ça se trouve tout prêt au supermarché, sinon farine classique + levure chimique)

Here's the original US version

AYRES PANCAKES

Mix these dry ingredients in a large bowl
2 cups of flour (I used the gateau flour that already has the leavener, so I don't need to add baking powder)
5 1/2 teaspoons of sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons of salt

Melt 5 1/2 tablespoons of butter, and then add 2 cups of milk and 2 egg yolks

Pour (Add) butter, milk, and egg yolks to dry ingredients

Whip 2 egg whites until they are white and fluffy (need a clean bowl)

Add egg whites to big bowl and fold in gently (do not mix)

Cook on griddle with a little butter as soon as possible.
