Ingredients

  • 3 piece Eggs (Large eggs, at room temperature)
  • 1 packet Vanilla (Packet of liquid or powdered vanilla)
  • 1.25 cup Milk (Cold or warm milk as desired)
  • 2 cup Flour (All-purpose white flour)
  • pinch Salt (Table salt)
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 3 tablespoon Sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Vegetable oil (For greasing the pan)

  5. Batter rest (optional)
