Quick Chinese Pancakes

Courses: Dessert
Serves: 12 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 3/4 cups 171g / 6ozAll-purpose flour
5 1/2 cups 1303mlFat-free milk
1 tablespoon 15mlStick margarine or butter - melted
1 tablespoon 15mlEgg (large)
1 tablespoon 15mlMinced fresh chives
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlFive-spice powder
  Nonstick cooking spray

Recipe Instructions

Place the flour in a medium bowl. Combine milk, margarine and egg; add to flour, stirring with a whisk until blended. Stir in fresh chives and five-spice powder. Cover; refrigerate for 1 hour.

Place an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Remove pan from heat; pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into pan. Quickly tilt pan in all directions so that batter covers bottom of pan. Cook about 1 minute.

Carefully lift edge of pancake with a spatula to test for doneness. The pancake will be ready to turn when it can be shaken loose from pan and the underside is lightly browned. Turn pancake over; cook 30 seconds on the other side.

Place the pancake on a towel; let cool. Repeat the procedure until all of the batter is used. Stack the pancakes between single layers of waxed paper or paper towels to prevent pancakes from sticking.

Yield: 12 pancakes.
