Fluffies

Directions

1. 1
   Whisk the flour, sugar, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
2. 2
   Beat the egg yolks and sour cream in a medium bowl until smooth.
3. 3
   With an electric mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites in a large bowl to soft peaks.
4. 4
   Stir the egg yolk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined. The batter should be lumpy with visible streaks of flour.
5. 5
   Using a spatula, carefully fold the whites into the batter until just combined. Do not overmix--a few streaks of white should be visible.
6. 6
   Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.
7. 7
   Drop the batter by tablespoons into the pan.
8. 8
   Cook until the pancakes are evenly browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes.
9. 9
   Repeat with the remaining batter, using additional vegetable oil as needed to grease the pan and serve with butter and syrup.
