Ingredients

2 3/4 cups all purpose flour

4 tablespoons golden or brown sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon (a good pinch) ground cardamom

3 egg whites

2 egg yolks

2 1/2 cups milk

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

6 tablespoons melted clarified butter, plus more for cooking

Directions

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and spices. Set aside. In a small bowl beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Set aside. In a third bowl, whisk together the remaining wet ingredients to combine.

Add the egg yolk mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just dampened. Some lumps are a good thing here; you are not going for a perfectly smooth batter. Add a dollop of the egg whites to the batter and fold to lighten. Once fully incorporated, fold in the the remaining egg white. Again, I do not mix to fully combine; the batter should be striped with white and tan at this stage.

While the batter rests, preheat a non-stick or cast iron griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush with melted clarified butter if desired. Ladle about 1/3 cup of the batter onto the pan. Cook until the edges become dry and bubbles begin to form in the centre, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until golden and puffed, about another 2 minutes. Remove to a platter and keep warm in a low oven if needed. Continue until all batter is used.
