Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups milk
  • 4 eggs
  • Vegetable oil for cooking
  • 2 tbsp confectioners’ sugar

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt; mix well. Whisk the milk and eggs into the flour mixture for 3 to 4 minutes, or until smooth. Lightly brush a small skillet with oil then heat over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, tilting the skillet to evenly coat the bottom with the batter; cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until firm on top. Turn the pancake, brushing the skillet with additional oil, if necessary; cook for about 1 more minute, or until the pancake is light brown on both sides. Fold the pancake in half, then in half again.
  • Remove to a baking sheet and keep warm in a 200˚F. oven until ready to serve. Continue with the remaining batter, brushing the skillet with oil as needed. Before serving, sprinkle the pancakes with confectioners' sugar (see Note).

Notes

 
For an even fancier look, top these with fresh or frozen strawberries and whipped cream before sprinkling with confectioners’ sugar.
