Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Mini Chinese Egg Cakes
  1. In a spacious mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs and 1/2 cup of sugar until pale and fluffy, around 3-4 minutes. Gradually mix in 1/2 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
  2. Sift 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder into a separate bowl. Gently fold this dry mix into the wet ingredients until smooth, being careful not to overmix.
  3. Place a non-stick mini pancake pan on low-medium heat to warm up for about 2-3 minutes. Lightly grease the molds before cooking.
  4. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter into each mold, filling halfway. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Transfer the Mini Chinese Egg Cakes to a wire rack to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, optionally dusting with powdered sugar or drizzling with condensed milk.
