This leavening-free recipe comes from my very own Jewish Grandma Florence, of Scranton, PA. Separating the eggs and beating the egg whites takes a couple extra minutes, but it's worth it when you taste the light fluffy goodness of these pancakes.

1/2 cup matzoh meal
3/4 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
3/4 cup cold water
3 eggs

1. Combine matzoh meal, salt, sugar

Top with syrup, fruit or a personal favorite, cinnamon and sugar.
