American Pancakes

A brilliant recipe that kids will just love! I would really recomend them.

Ingredients

30 g (1 oz) unsalted butter

225 g( 8 oz) plain flour

2 heaped tsp baking powder

1 tsp sugar

250 ml (1/2 pint) whole milk

2 eggs

salt (pinch)

Method

1. melt the butter in a pan or in a microrave and then combine this with all of the other ingredients and a pinch of  salt, if desired, in a blender. Mix until smooth and really well combined. technically, pancake batter should be left to stand for sometime before cooking( Although you don't haveto if your kids are going on about how hungry they are and how much they want pancakes so i will let you off for not leaving it to stand!); You can make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight. Otherwise try and leave it for half an hour if you have time. If you don't, don't worry.
2. Heat another knob of butter in a shallow frying pan and then fry the batter in 5-6 cm(2-2 1/2 inch) rounds on both sides until golden brown. Use a palate knife or a fish slice to turn them .
