Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and vanilla sugar.
2
Add the eggs, then gradually pour in the milk and sparkling water, whisking continuously until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
3
Let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the ingredients to fully combine.
4
Lightly grease a skillet with oil and heat over medium heat.
5
Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet and spread it evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the edges start to pull away from the pan, then flip and cook for another minute.
6
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, re-oiling the pan as needed.
7
Fill the cooked pancakes with ground poppy seeds and powdered sugar, then roll or fold them up.
8
Serve fresh, optionally drizzled with a little honey or jam.
