Here's a yummy pancake recipe that we enjoyed this evening!
Ingredients
* 135g self-raising flour
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 130ml milk
* a pinch of salt
* 2 tbsp caster sugar
* 1 large egg, beaten
* 2 tbsp melted butter (allowed to cool slightly), plus a little more for cooking
* what ever you fancy to eat with you pancakes
Method
1. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and caster sugar into a large bowl.
2. In a separate bowl or jug, lightly whisk together the milk and egg, then whisk in the melted butter.
3. Pour the milk mixture into the flour and, using a fork, beat until you have a smooth batter. Any lumps will soon disappear with a little mixing.
(your batter will look somewhat like cake mixture – don’t worry)
4. Now for the important bit – Let the batter stand for a few minutes.
5. Grease a non-stick frying pan with a little butter and place over a medium heat.
6. When the pan gets up to temperature add a spoonful of batter. It will seem very thick but this is how it should be.
7. Wait until the top of the pancake begins to bubble, then turn it over (or toss it, if you’re feeling brave!) and cook until both sides are a nice golden brown and the pancake has risen to about 1cm thick.
8. Repeat until all the batter is used up. You can keep the pancakes warm in a low oven.
Serve to taste … I like dollops of golden syrup, berries and yoghurt ☺
Happy Pancake Day everyone!
