Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Neutral oil (for greasing)

Instructions
- Begin by separating egg whites and yolks into two bowls. In the yolk bowl, add milk and vanilla; mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until foamy, then gradually add sugar while beating until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the flour and baking powder into the yolk mixture until just combined, then fold in the meringue in three additions.
- Heat a nonstick frying pan over low heat and grease it lightly with neutral oil. Use a ring mold if available to help achieve height when scooping batter onto the pan.

- Serve warm topped with sweetened whipped cream and fresh berries.
