Desserts

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups plain flour
  • 1¾ tsp baking powder
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 3 tbsp (45g) melted butter
  • 1-1¼ cup milk

Method

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt and sugar) in a bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the egg, milk and melted butter well.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a wooden spoon, only until incorporated. Theirs is no need to get rid of lumps, so do not over-mix.
  4. If a slightly more liquid batter is desired, add some or all of the additional ¼ cup milk.
  5. Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or longer in the fridge.
  6. Heat a large pan, oil with a little butter or cooking spray and lower the heat to medium.
  7. Pour some batter (as desired) and fry for about 2 minutes until air bubbles start to form on the top and the bottom is browned.
  8. Flip and cook for approximately another minute and remove to a plate.
  9. Serve immediately with maple syrup, sour cream, honey, butter, caramel or chocolate syrup.
