What do you need for Crème fraîche, Pancakes, and Raspberries?
To prepare these Pancakes with Crème Fraîche and Raspberries, you need the following ingredients. You can find the correct amounts in the recipe card at the bottom of the blog:

- Flour - Use all-purpose flour to make the pancakes.
- Baking powder - Ensures that the pancakes rise. If you want to know more about baking powder and possible substitutes, you will find a blog about baking powder and baking soda here.
- Salt - Provides more flavor.
- Milk - The milk in the batter gives the pancakes a slightly creamy taste.
- Sugar - For a bit of sweetness in the pancake. Not too much, because the raspberries are already deliciously sweet. And afterward, you can choose to add some Maple Syrup or Date Syrup.
- Egg - Makes the pancakes firm and have a rich taste.
- Oil - A little oil in the pancake batter will lighten the pancake and keep it from tasting dry.
- Crème fraîche - Is a thick, slightly acidified cream. It gives a full flavor and is delicious as a topping.
- Raspberries - Sweet, soft, and deliciously juicy. Do not wash them; just wipe them clean with a damp piece of paper. Remove any leaves or stems by hand.

You can find a printable recipe with a step-by-step description at the bottom of this blog.

- Mix flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder in a bowl. Mix the milk, egg, and oil in a second large bowl.
- Shake the solid ingredients into the liquid and mix until you have a batter. It doesn't have to be completely smooth; there may still be a few lumps.
- Grab a little oil and grease a frying pan with a brush. Take 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter and pour it into a frying pan. Rub into a circle with the back of a spoon. Make three in a pan.
- When you see bubbles forming, and the batter solidifies, turn the pancakes and bake for another 2 minutes.
Serve the pancakes with a spoonful of crème fraîche, fresh raspberries, and (optional) maple or date syrup.
