Six years ago (during Covid) I mastered the art of fluffy pancake making, and to this day it’s one of my most asked for DM’s. As today is pancake day, I thought I’d send it straight to your inbox. So simple, so easy and so delicious.
Ingredients:
135g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp caster sugar
120ml milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tbsp melted butter (allow to cool slightly), plus a little extra for cooking
Method:
Sift the flour, baking powder and caster sugar into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the milk and egg together, then whisk in the melted butter.
Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and using a fork, beat until you have a smooth batter. Let it stand for a few minutes.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, add a knob of butter. When it’s melted, add a ladle of batter. It will seem very thick but it’s meant to look like this. Wait until the top of the pancake begins to bubble, turn it over and cook until both sides are golden brown and the pancake is about 1cm thick.
Repeat until all of the batter is used up. Serve with whatever toppings you wish!
Enjoy – and tag me in any pics of them if you make them. I’d love to see!!
