Bank Holiday Brunch Pancakes

Woke up this morning thinking what can we have for breakfast, no bread in the house again, although I did make homemade Ciabatta yesterday.

Decided to whip up some fluffy pancakes and top them with scrambled egg & baked beans.


Pancakes
200g self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 medium egg
300g milk
3 tbs melted butter

Sift flour and baking powder together into a bowl
Beat together the egg, milk & melted butter
Gently whisk together with a hand whisk, do not over mix or your pancakes will be tough and chewy.
Lightly grease a non stick frying pan and heat over a gentle heat
Spoon a ladelful of mix into pan (I fry 3 pancakes at a time)
Flip over when golden brown and fry until golden on both sides.

Top with scrambled eggs & baked beans

Breakfast Pancakes

Often there isn't any bread left in the house and I'm not keen on cereals so I whip up these small fluffy pancakes for breakfast.  They are so easy and lovely with a few frozen berries sprinkled on before flipping over.  I have tried so many different recipes for these pancakes and decided to make my own version which I must say worked perfect this morning.

I use a mug for the measurements:
1 mug self raising flour (I use Mc Dougalls Special S.R. flour)
half a mug buttermilk
half a mug milk
1 TBS melted butter
1 egg

Beat the egg, buttermilk, milk & butter together
Add flour and gently stir together, should be thick whipping cream consistency.

Lightly grease the frying pan with some oil/butter, add tablespoon of batter and drop on some frozen berries if desired and fry on very low heat.
When golden on bottom flip over and cook until golden brown.

Serve with syrup, butter or jam. They freeze very well too.
