Pancake Day 2023

It’s pancake day today! I have a super easy recipe that you can make with your kids, the texture is like the American pancakes, soft and fluffy!

Ingredients:

1 egg, 1/3 cup of plain flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, 45ml milk, and 1 tsp butter & 1/2 tbsp oil for frying.

Suggestions for toppings – Maple Syrup with berry fruits, Nutella and banana, ice cream and sprinkles or the classic flavor – lemon, and sugar!

Method:

  1. Separate the egg, putting the white and yolk in separate bowls. Mix the egg yolk with the flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and milk to make a smooth paste.
  2. Beat the egg white and a pinch of salt with an electric whisk or by hand until fluffy and holding its shape. Gently fold the egg white into the yolk mixture. Be careful not to knock out any of the air.
  3. Heat the butter and oil in a non-stick frying pan. Dollop a third of the mixture into the pan and cook on each for 1-2 mins or until golden brown. You can make about 3 pancakes or you can make 1 big one! Enjoy!
