Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Put into a blender goblet: 12 eggs, 120 g oil, 120 g caster sugar, 1 kg milk, 4 tablespoons rum and 2 pinches salt.

Stage 2 - 3 min.

Pour in 160 g noisette butter

Stage 3 - 2 min.

Then add 500 g flour.

Note: it is important to begin by pouring in the liquids to avoid forcing the blender motor.

Stage 4

Mix on medium speed...

Stage 5 - 3 min.

...until the batter is evenly mixed.

Stage 6

Your pancake batter is ready for use.

Remarks

If you do not have a blender, you can use a whisk.

You will find plenty of recipes that tell you to leave the batter to rest, but having tried both ways (resting / not resting), I have not found that it makes any difference.

A variation worth trying: replace half the flour with chestnut flour.

Keeping: A few days in the fridge covered with plastic film.
