Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 150 g all-purpose flour, 250 ml milk, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 tsp salt until smooth and no lumps remain. Let batter rest for 10 minutes.
- Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 10 g unsalted butter, swirling to coat the pan.
- Step 3: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, tilting to spread thinly. Cook for 2 minutes until edges lift and bottom is golden.
- Step 4: Flip the pancake and immediately top with 50 g speck slices and half the thinly sliced apple (about 1/2 apple). Cook for another 1-2 minutes until speck crisps and apple softens slightly.
- Step 5: Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining butter, batter, speck, and apple slices to make 3 more pancakes.
- Step 6: Serve warm, dusted with 1 tbsp powdered sugar if desired for a touch of sweetness.
