Pancakes

Berry Scotland

Ingredients: serves 4 - 6


Method:

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together and form a well in the centre of the bowl.
  2. Add eggs, water, milk and melted margarine and beat until smooth.
  3. Heat a non-stick pan and wipe with a piece of kitchen roll with a little vegetable oil or margarine. Add spoonfuls of the batter, swirling the pan to cover the whole pan very thinly.
  4. Cook until golden then turn and repeat. Keep pancakes warm on a plate over hot water, separating with pieces of tinfoil to prevent sticking until serving.

Recipe tips:

Tasty Pancake ideas: - Leftovers: If you have made too many pancakes, simply freeze the leftovers between layers of cling film and wrapped in foil. - Cheese sauce: make a white sauce and add cheese. You can add a variety of vegetable leftovers, ham, chicken or whatever needs used up. Spread the pancakes with the mixture, roll up and sprinkle with cheese. Heat in the oven until piping hot. - Fruit: Leftover fruit can be roughly chopped and mixed with a little sugar and cooked over a gentle heat until soft. Fill the pancakes with the fruit mix and serve with yoghurt - delicious! - Bananas: Bananas and maple syrup make a great filling for pancakes. Serve with yoghurt if you wish. - Lemons: Try serving your pancakes with a squeeze of lemon or orange juice and a little honey.
