Pancake Day!


Only a few days to left until pancake day! We love this light, fluffy America style version packed with delicious blueberries! 

Ingredients: 

  • 200g self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 egg
  • 300ml milk
  • knob butter
  • 150g of blueberries
  • A little butter for cooking
  • Maple syrup

Method:

  • Mix together 200g self-raising flour, 1 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.

  • Beat 1 egg with 300ml milk, make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and whisk in the milk to make a thick smooth batter.
  • Beat in a knob of melted butter, and gently stir in half of the 150g pack of blueberries.
  • Heat a small knob of butter in a large frying pan. 
  • Drop a large tablespoonful of the batter per pancake into the pan to make pancakes about 7.5cm across. Make three or four pancakes at a time.

  • Cook for about 3 minutes over a medium heat until small bubbles appear on the surface of each pancake, then turn and cook another 2-3 minutes until golden.
  • Cover with kitchen paper to keep warm while you use up the rest of the batter.

    Serve with maple syrup and the rest of the blueberries.
