Nigella's HOME MADE INSTANT PANCAKE MIX (with a couple of adaptions)

This is another one of my favourites from Nigella's Express Cookbook. I have added a couple of ingredients to the original recipe, the juice and zest of one lemon and a handful of raisins but the rest is all Nigella (aka Domestic Goddess).

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE PANCAKE MIX
600g flour
3 x 15ml tablespoons baking powder
2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon salt
40g vanilla or caster sugar
TO MAKE THE BATTER AND THE PANCAKES
For each 150g pancake mix, add and whisk together:
1 egg
250ml semi-skimmed or full-fat milk
1 x 15ml tablespoon melted butter
Juice and zest of one lemon  
Handful of raisins
Serving Size : Makes 15 pancakes, each about 8cm in diameter 

METHOD



1.For the Pancake mix: Mix all the ingredients together and store in a jar.
2.When ready to make the pancakes, proceed as follows: Heat a flat griddle or pan with no oil.
3.Spoon drops of 1 1/2–2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot griddle or into the pan and, when bubbles appear on the surface of the little pancakes, flip them over to make them golden brown on both sides. A minute or so a side should do it.

 

Serve with jam and butter! Yum! Weekend treat breakfast!


Another great thing about these pancakes is that they are freezable, just put them in a tuppawear box, similar to the one below and freeze. As you want to use them simply reheat in the toaster. Perfect!
