Super Simple British Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour, 2 large eggs, 300ml milk, 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil and a pinch of salt into a bowl or large jug, then whisk to a smooth batter.
• Set aside for 30 mins to rest if you have time, or start cooking straight away.
• Set a medium frying pan or crêpe pan over a medium heat and carefully wipe it with some oiled kitchen paper.
• When hot, cook your pancakes for 1 min on each side until golden, keeping them warm in a low oven as you go.
• Serve with lemon wedges and caster sugar, or your favourite filling. Once cold, you can layer the pancakes between baking parchment, then wrap in cling film and freeze for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center, and pour in milk, egg and oil. Mix until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

Steps:

• Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl.
• Make a well in the centre of the flour and break the eggs into it, then whisk the eggs into the flour.
• Slowly add small quantities of the milk and water mixture, whisking all the while to get the lumps out of the flour.
• The batter should be like thin cream when you are done.
• Now melt the butter in your frying pan.
• Spoon 2 tbsp of it into the batter and whisk it in, then pour the rest into a bowl and use it to grease the pan, using a bit of paper towel to smear it round before you make each pancake.
• Heat up the pan over a high heat, then turn the heat down to medium.
• Spoon the batter into the pan, using just less than 1/4 cup for a 10" pan.
• You don't want them too big or they will be hard to flip.
• As soon as the batter hits the hot pan, tip it around from side to side to get the base evenly coated with batter.
• It will only take a few seconds to cook.
• When it is golden brown underneath, flip to the other side and cook for a few more seconds.
• Place on a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while you make the rest.
• To serve, sprinkle each pancake with freshly squeezed lemon juice and caster sugar, fold in half, then in half again to form triangles, or else simply roll them up.
• Serve sprinkled with a little more sugar and lemon juice and extra sections of lemon.

Steps:

• Sift flour into a bowl.
• Add salt and stir with a hand whisk.
• Add egg and slowly add milk while stirring.
• (batter will be more runnier than American pancakes).
• Refrigerate for an hour.
• Put a little oil in a medium sized frying pan and warm over medium heat, after coating bottom of frying pan, pour out extra oil.
• Pour 1/4 of a cup of batter in the pan and tilt so the batter covers the bottom of the pan.
• Flip pancakes after about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Repeat steps 4-6 until batter is gone.
• Serve with lemon and sugar, fruit, or Lyle's golden syrup.

Steps:

• Mix together your dry ingredients. Make a well in the center, and pour in egg, milk and oil. Mix until well combined.
• Oil a frying pan and heat it over medium high heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan. Pancakes are ready, when the both sides are brown.
