Prep: 15 minutes Cook: 15 minutes Serves 4
Ingredients
■ 200g self raising flour
■ 1½ tsp baking powder
■ 1 tbsp caster sugar (15g)
■ 3 medium eggs
■ 25g butter, melted
■ 200ml semi skimmed milk
■ 2 tbsp natural yoghurt
■ Oil for frying
■ 12 slices streaky bacon (180g)
■ Maple syrup to serve
Method
Place the flour, baking powder and sugar in a large bowl.
Make a hollow in the centre and crack in the eggs and add the butter, milk and yoghurt.
With a balloon whisk, mix until a smooth batter forms.
Heat a little oil in a large non-stick frying pan and add 3 large tablespoons of batter, fry for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form in the batter, flip over and fry for 1-2 minutes until golden.
Repeat to make 12 pancakes.
Meanwhile, place the bacon on a foil-lined grill pan and place under a preheated grill for 6-7 minutes, turning once until crispy.
Serve the pancakes topped with bacon and drizzled with maple syrup.
Cook’s tip
Try serving the pancakes with fresh fruit instead of the bacon and syrup or omit the sugar and serve with bacon and ketchup for a savoury alternative.
