blend all ingredients in a blender or use an immersion blender until smooth and thick (no curds visible).

let the batter sit for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.

pour 2–3 tbsp of batter per pancake into the pan. use the back of a spoon to spread into a circle if needed.
