An easy pancake batter recipe with tips on how to make the best pancakes every time with sweet or savoury toppings


Ingredients

  • 100g plain flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 300ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil or vegetable, plus extra for frying
  • pinch salt


Method

STEP 1

Put 100g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl.


STEP 2

Make a well in the centre and crack 2 eggs into the middle.


STEP 3

Pour in about 50ml from the 300ml of semi-skimmed milk and 1 tbsp sunflower oil then start whisking from the centre, gradually drawing the flour into the eggs, milk and oil. Once all the flour is incorporated, beat until you have a smooth, thick paste. Add a little more milk if it is too stiff to beat.


STEP 4

Add a good splash of milk and whisk to loosen the thick batter. While still whisking, pour in a steady stream of the remaining milk. Continue pouring and whisking until you have a batter that is the consistency of slightly thick single cream.


STEP 5

Heat the pan over a moderate heat, then wipe it with oiled kitchen paper.


STEP 6

Ladle some batter into the pan, tilting the pan to move the mixture around for a thin and even layer. Quickly pour any excess batter into the mixing bowl, return the pan to the heat.

And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
