Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Nunu is in the kitchen with her older sis, this time learning how to make Pancakes. Good Old Fashioned Pancakes!

So easy to make – Served with Maple Syrup and Butter. The girls had a great time making the batter by themselves and even tried a hand at cooking them. Great recipe for young children to develop a love for cooking.

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes

Ingredients:

1 ½ cups Self Rising Flour or All purpose
1 ¾ tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 Tbsp melted butter
1 ¼ – 1 ½ cups milk
Melted butter and Maple syrup for serving

Method:

DRY INGREDIENTS:

Sift the flour before measuring.
Add the salt, sugar and baking powder and sift all together again.

WET INGREDIENTS:

Lightly beat the eggs.
Add milk and melted butter to the eggs and whisk.
Batter:
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into this.
Whisk till you get a smooth batter.
Heat a frying pan over low heat. Brush lightly with oil or melted butter. (You need do this only once for good non stick pans).
Pour one ladle (about ¼ cup) batter into the center of the pan.
Bubbles will appear all over the surface. And the surface will become dry.
Cook for about 1 minute or till the underside is golden. Keep warm while cooking the remaining pancakes.
Serve pancakes, stacked with soft butter and a drizzling of Maple Syrup.
Stack showing the same face of the pancakes, brown or light side. Nunu and her sister prefer the lighter side up.
