Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder or baking soda
- salt generous pinch
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 1½ cups buttermilk
- 2 egg
- 2 tablespoons neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
to serve
- butter
- maple syrup or golden syrup
Instructions
- To make the batter, combine all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well.
- In a measuring jug, mix the wet ingredients well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and with a whisk, mix until you have a smooth batter.
- Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add a drop of oil to the pan and coat the pan lightly (I use paper towel to smear it around a little).
- Add spoonfuls of the batter to the pan and allow the pancakes to cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip over and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side. Remove from the pan and keep on a warmed plate until all the pancakes are cooked.
- Serve the pancakes with butter, syrup and fruit of your choice.
