Step 1
Whip egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form, ~5 minutes. In a separate bowl, whisk yolks with 2 tbsp sugar until pale.
Step 2
Fold flour into yolks, then add melted butter and milk. Gently fold in egg whites in two additions until just combined.
Step 3
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low. Butter lightly, then pour batter into 3-inch circles.
Step 4
Cover with a lid and cook for 4 minutes until the bottom is set and golden. Flip gently and cook uncovered for 2 minutes more.
Step 5
Stack pancakes on a plate and top with strawberries and blueberries. Serve immediately while centers still jiggle.
