PANCAKES TO CURB CRAVINGS

MY HEALTHY take on American pancakes are a big hit for weekend brunches or an indulgent summer dessert. Spelt flour is a good source of fibre, magnesium and iron, and slightly easier to digest than wheat. Berries are a sweet source of antioxidants, while the cinnamon may help curb sugar cravings. SERVES 2 329 calories 80g spelt flour ½ tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground cinnamon, plus extra to sprinkle 1 medium egg 75g plain live yoghurt, plus a little extra to serve 4–5 tbsp milk 150g summer berries (just thawed if using frozen) 15g butter Drizzle of raw runny honey SIFT the spelt into a bowl with the baking powder and cinnamon. Make a well in the middle and stir in the egg, yoghurt and milk. Gently fold in the berries. Set aside for ten minutes. Heat the butter in a large frying pan and spoon four spoonfuls of the mixture on to the pan — you should use all of it up. Cook over a low to medium heat for 2–3 minutes, until the base has set, then flip over each pancake and cook the other side until the middle has set, too. Serve each pancake with a dollop of yoghurt, drizzle over a little honey and sprinkle with cinnamon.
