RECIPE - FLIPPING GOOD PANCAKES

Saturday 13 September 2014

Pancakes are my favourite weekend breakfast treat so I thought I'd share my simple recipe with you all! This recipe is for basic English pancakes so they're more like crepes than American pancakes.

Ingredients:

110g Plain Flour
2 Eggs
200ml Milk
75ml Water
Ingredients of your choice to serve (I would recommend Lemon and Sugar)!

Method: 

Add the flour and eggs to a bowl and stir to create a thick mixture. I would recommend using a fork rather than a whisk as it just seems to combine the two better!

Then measure the milk and water in to the same jug and begin to add the liquid to the flour and egg mixture. Do this bit-by-bit stirring in between to make sure you don't get any lumps. Continue until all of the liquid is incorporated and you should have quite a runny batter

Now put a frying pan on a medium heat and grease it with a little vegetable oil or butter using kitchen roll. This will ensure there isn't too much oil in the pan. 

Once the pan is hot add around half a ladle of batter and use the back of the ladle to spread the batter in to a circle. Once the pancake is golden brown (you will see bubbles forming) flip it over and cook the other side. The pancakes should take a few minutes to cook.

Continue to cook the pancakes until you've used all of your batter. Keep the cooked ones warm in the oven! I would recommend serving them the English way with sugar and lemon but they're also really tasty with mixed fruit, chocolate and maple syrup toppings! They make the perfect weekend treat so enjoy!
