Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl.
  2. Make a well in the centre and add the eggs.
  3. Whisk, slowly incorporating the flour from the sides.
  4. Gradually whisk in the milk and water mixture to form the batter.
  5. Just before you want to cook the pancakes whisk in the coconut oil.
  6. In a large non-stick frying pan heat a teaspoon of coconut oil on a high heat and then turn down to a medium heat.
  7. Pour the oil into small vessel.
  8. Pour enough batter into the frying pan (whilst tipping in a circle) to cover the base.
  9. Cook through until small bubbles appear on the surface and base turns golden (you can lift the side to check).
  10. Flip pancake and cook for about another 30 seconds until golden.
  11. Repeat with the rest of the pancake mixture, stacking the pancakes on top of each other as you go.
  12. Place the pancakes on the table and allow your diners to assemble their monster pancakes.
  13. Squeezy chocolate hazelnut spread forms a great “denture grip” for the monster teeth which can be squeezed half way around the edge of the pancake.
  14. Place fruit teeth in the spread and fill the pancake with more fruit if wished.
  15. Fold over the pancake (allowing the monster teeth to show) and make monster faces using the suggested toppings.
  16. Serve with ice cream if wished.
