Pancakes. The thick kind we know and love.

"I prefer my pancakes almost a cm in thickness, less flour or more milk will give you a runny mix if you prefer, I make these all the time if I’m honest, quick and easy family pleaser. Oo I sometimes have them with bacon between two as a sandwich 😉Feedback would be much appreciated. Hope you enjoy."

Ingredients
Utensils
whisk, bowl, sieve, Table spoon , nonstick pan, offset spatula
Step 1/9
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 egg (Large)
- whisk
- bowl
Beat the egg, slowly adding all of the sugar until the sugar and egg are one.
Step 2/9
- 125 g Self raising flour
- sieve
Sift the flour into the egg and sugar mix, it should be really thick by now but don’t panic, all part of the plan.
Step 3/9
- 125 ml milk
- 1 tbsp butter (allow to slightly cool after melting)
- Table spoon
Slowly add half the milk then add the melted/softened butter and the rest of the milk. continue to whisk until the batter thins a bit, you should see the strokes of the whisk but the batter should still run. You can add less of more milk depending on how thick you prefer your pancakes.
Step 4/9
- nonstick pan
Allow the batter to rest for 5-10 minutes, towards the end of the rest, put a non stick pan on a low- medium heat.
Step 5/9
Once pan is warm pour mix into the pan to the desired size, it should sizzle but quietly, this is important as these are easy to burn.
Step 6/9
Be sure to keep the pans heat low- medium, you should start to see the bubbles rise in the pancake and if you shake the pan they shouldn’t wobble. Flip time.
Step 7/9
- offset spatula
Once flipped you can watch the mix in the side of the pancake firm up, each should take about 3-4 minutes that being 2 minutes roughly either side. Stack in a rack and continue until the mix is finished
Step 8/9
- maple syrup (for serving)
Add the maple syrup and enjoy, can also add yoghourts, jams or fruits, whatever floats your boat.
Step 9/9
The most important part of all. Enjoy 👌🏽
Enjoy your meal!
