1.5 cups all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1.5 cups milk

How to cook it

Whisk the flour, baking powder and sugar together in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and the melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk just until smooth; do not overmix.
Heat a little butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and ladle in small rounds of batter, cooking for 2 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
Stack the tortitas on plates and drizzle with the honey, a weekend dish that is modern rather than traditional but genuinely made in homes with children.
