Polskie Nalesniki (Polish Pancakes)

1. Add flour, eggs, milk, water, and salt in a large bowl then mix with a hand mixer until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
2. At this point, mix in the butter or the vegetable oil. Alternatively, you can use them to grease the pan before frying each pancake.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, then pour in the batter, swirling the pan to help it spread.
4. When the pancake starts pulling away a bit from the sides, and the top is no longer wet, flip it and cook shortly on the other side as well.
5. Transfer to a plate. Cook the remaining batter until all used up.
6. Serve warm, with the filling of your choice.

Cooking notes

Baked goods are unforgiving with rounding — use weights rather than volumes whenever possible, and verify pan capacity if you scale up or down significantly.

For volume-to-weight conversions of any ingredient — flour, sugar, butter, salts — use the ingredient converter. To translate the recipe's oven temperature between °C, °F and gas mark, see the temperature converter.

When you scale this recipe up or down, remember that cooking time does not scale linearly. A doubled cake takes longer, but not twice as long; a doubled soup takes roughly twice as long. The cooking-time guide gives sensible starting estimates by dish geometry.
