Time 35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray, for the skillets
3 cups cake flour (see Cook's Note)
6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/4 cups milk
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, separated, plus 4 whites
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Maple syrup, for serving
Whipped cream, for serving
Assorted fresh berries, for serving

Steps:

Position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Lightly spray one small (8-inch) and one medium (10-inch) ovenproof nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray (or brush lightly with melted butter).
Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla and egg yolks in a medium bowl until combined.
Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in a second large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (it's okay if there are a few lumps). Stir one-third of the egg white mixture into the flour-milk mixture. Then gently fold in the remaining egg whites until just combined (take care not to overmix).
Pour 3 cups of the batter into the small skillet and pour the remaining batter into the medium skillet. Cover each skillet with a lid (or cover and seal with aluminum foil). Bake, rotating the skillets top to bottom halfway through, until the pancakes are cooked through and the bottoms are golden, 15 to 17 minutes.
Flip the larger pancake onto a serving platter and top with the smaller pancake. Pour a generous amount of syrup over the stack and top with whipped cream and berries. Serve with butter on the side.

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter, melted
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Butter
Warm maple syrup

Steps:

Preheat oven to 250°F. Whisk eggs, sugar and melted butter in medium bowl until blended. Add flour alternately with milk in 3 additions, whisking to blend after each addition. Whisk in baking powder and salt.
Melt enough butter in heavy medium nonstick skillet over medium heat just to coat bottom. Ladle scant 3/4 cup batter into skillet, rotating skillet to spread batter to about 6-inch-diameter round. Cook pancake until bubbles form on surface and bottom is brown, about 1 minute. Turn over pancake and cook until bottom is brown and pancake is cooked through, about 1 minute. Transfer to large baking sheet. Place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter to form 5 more pancakes, adding more butter to skillet as necessary. Serve with syrup.
