For delicious pancakes, you don't necessarily need baking powder. This is an easy pancakes without baking powder recipe that has just the same fluffiness and one you will love.
Whip the egg yolks until firm (stiff peaks appear when you check with a spoon).
Add all the dry ingredients (flour, salt and sugar if used) into a large mixing bowl and mix.
Mix the egg yolks, milk and maple syrup together (wet ingredients) in a separate bowl.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix until you have a smooth batter.
Now gently, with a silicone spatula, mix the whipped egg whites into the pancake batter.
Heat a pan under low heat.
Grease the pan with oil.
Pour about two tablespoons of batter into the pan to form a circle and cook until bubbles form on top (about 2 minutes). Then flip the pancake to cook for another minute on the other side.
Continue until you have used up the whole pancake batter (until golden brown).
