Instructions
- Pour the eggs, lemon juice, oil and water into a bowl and mix with a hand mixer
- Add the flour and baking powder bit by bit while still beating with the electric mixer till the batter is smooth. Add a little water to thin out the batter.
- Scoop a ladle full into a non-stick pan then tilt the pan slowly to spread it out all over the pan.
- As soon as the pancake batter starts pulling away on the sides with bubbles on top, flip it over and cook for a few more seconds.
Serve with cinnamon sugar sprinkled all over it.
