Here’s an easy-to-follow recipe for thick, fluffy pancakes, but feel free to follow your own.
Ingredients:
200g self-raising flour
1.5 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
3 eggs
25g butter, melted
200ml milk
Vegetable oil
Plus toppings of your choice, for example, maple syrup, chocolate chips, berries, yoghurt, peanut butter etc.
Method:
- Mix the self-raising flour with the baking powder, golden caster sugar and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.
- Using the back of your spoon, create a well in the centre of the mixture and add the eggs with the melted butter and milk.
- Whisk together the ingredients until the mixture becomes smooth and then pour in a jug.
- Heat a small knob of butter and vegetable oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Carefully pour in rounds of the batter, making sure to leave enough space between each as they will spread whilst the cook.
- Cook the pancakes for a couple of minutes on each side, or until lots of tiny bubbles start to appear and pop on the surface. Flip the pancakes over and cook for a further minute or two on the other side. Repeat this process until all the batter is used up.
- Assemble your pancakes on a nice plate and top with your favourite treats.
