Ingredients
- 175 grams plain flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 25 grams caster sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 250 milliliters milk
- 25 grams butter
Method
- Place the flour, baking powder and caster sugar into a bowl and stir to combine.
- Add the egg yolks and milk to the bowl with the dry ingredients and whisk to make a smooth batter.
- In a separate clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed, then fold into the batter.
- Heat a large frying pan until hot, add the butter and heat until melted and foaming. Place spoonfuls of the batter into the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on top of the batter.
- Turn the pancakes over using a spatula and cook for a further minute on the other side. Remove from the pan and keep warm until ready to serve. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
- To serve, divide the pancakes among four serving plates, top with your favourite fruit and drizzle with maple syrup.
