French pancakes
(at time of publication)
Ingredients
- Batter
- 1 egg
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup buttermilk
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- Topping
- sprinkle of cinnamon, to serve
- 1 cup fresh or frozen (defrosted) blueberries, to serve
Instructions
1 In a bowl beat together all batter ingredients. Cover and leave batter to rest for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
2 Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Spoon pancake mixture into pan, enough to cover the whole surface with a thin layer of batter. Cook for 30 seconds, then turn over with a spatula and cook for another 20 seconds. Repeat until all batter is used up.
3 Serve with cinnamon and blueberries on top.
Variations
Make it gluten free: Use gluten-free flour and baking powder. Check cinnamon is gluten free.
For a sweeter taste, serve with a dusting of icing sugar (gluten free if necessary).
Instead of cinnamon, try lemon juice and honey.
HFG tip
If you’re in a hurry, don’t rest the batter. The pancakes will still be delicious, just a little less fluffy.
If you’re using defrosted berries and they’ve turned mushy, zap them in a blender to convert them into a sauce.
