It’s Pancake Day! Impress and delight your flatmates with this super-easy recipe.
You will need:
Frying pan Big-ish bowl for mixing ingredients Whisk (a fork will do) Spatula (unless your pancake-flipping skills are second-to-none) A mug (size will depend on how many pancakes you want to make!)
Flour (plain or self-raising is fine) Milk 1 medium egg Butter/Cocunut oil for frying A selection of toppings to suit everyone – common ones include Nutella and banana, lemon and sugar, and golden syrup.
Method:
- Fill the mug with flour and put it in the bowl
- Fill the mug with milk to the same level as the flour and add to the bowl
- Whisk/mix the flour and milk until there are as few lumps as possible
- Add one egg and whisk again
- Heat coin-sized amount of butter/oil in the pan and when it starts to bubble move it around to coat the pan
- Add mix according to how big or thick you want your pancakes to be!
- When you start to see bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, it’s time to flip!
- Keep flipping until your pancakes are nice and golden brown
- Serve, top, and enjoy!
