Flour pancakes with cherries à la Gabi

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 100 g flour
• ½ tsp salt
• 250 ml milk
• 2 eggs
• 40 g butter
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• some butter for frying
• 1 jar sour cherries
• 2 tbsp, heaped sugar, or more
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• 1 tbsp cornstarch, or more

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 18 minutes; Total time approx. 38 minutes

Mix the milk, sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, eggs, and butter together, then stir in the flour (makes 1/2 liter of batter). Drain the sour cherries. Pour the cherry juice (reserve a little to mix the cornstarch) into a saucepan, stir in the sugar and vanilla sugar, and heat until smooth. Mix the cornstarch with a little of the juice until smooth, stir into the boiling cherry juice, add the cherries, and heat until soft (the cherry juice should be slightly thick; otherwise, stir in a little more cornstarch). Heat a little butter in a 28 cm pan, add 1/4 liter of batter, and bake over medium heat for about 9 minutes. Then turn over using a plate and bake for about another 9 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. Place the pancakes on two plates, fill one half with the cherry filling, and fold the other half over the top. Serve hot.
