café-style pancakes

(or how-to-make-a-sexy-café-style-brekkie-
for-nine-hungry-peeps-in-the-twinkling-of-an-eye)

usually i throw in a cup of porridge oats (fills up the natives) and omit the melted butter, but today i threw caution to the wind and actually followed (well i *tripled*)
this recipe (thanks again, sophie)

sift:
1 1/4 c plain flour
1/4 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
whisk in with electric beater:
1 egg
3/4 c milk, soured with a squeeze of lemon juice
30 g butter, melted
melt knob of butter on hot flat griddle that i salvaged from mum's kitchen, cook four at a time, hurrying, because these little pancakes are gobbled as soon as they come out of the pan... oh, and remember to save *one* for self.


serve with lashings of natural yoghurt, heap with blueberries and drizzle with maple syrup. think of the recently-reappeared waistline and resist going back for seconds, lol.

  2. We love pancakes here and my husband makes great ones. Sometimes he makes them with chocolate chips inside; not so great for the waistline though, huh?
