Makes 5 large pancakes
Equipment
- Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Whisk
- Measuring jug
- Ladle
- Large frying pan
- Slotted turner
- Pastry brush
- Greaseproof paper
Ingredients
- 150g plain flour
- Pinch of salt
- 3 free-range eggs (any size)
- 300ml milk (semi-skimmed or full fat)
- Butter
Method
- Measure out the flour and place it in the mixing bowl. Add the salt and whisk briefly, making a well in the center.
- Crack the eggs into the well and whisk again, slowly adding milk until the mixture is thin and smooth. Leave the mix to stand while you prepare the pan.
- Place the pan over a low flame and allow it to heat up. Add a small knob of butter, allow it to melt and quickly brush over the surface.
- Add a ladleful of mix to the hot buttered pan, swirl to distribute it evenly and cook until golden and mottled – about a minute on each side should do it. Flip flamboyantly if you are feeling confident (if not, turn gingerly with a slotted turner – either way gets the same result).
- Transfer the pancake onto greaseproof paper. Add more butter to the pan and repeat. Stack your pancakes with a layer of greaseproof paper between each one and serve with wedges of lemon, sugar, jam, fruit, golden syrup, chocolate spread and anything else your heart desires.
