Prep time

Ingredients

  • Egg: 1 large egg
  • Milk: 300ml milk
  • Butter: 2 tbsp melted butter, plus extra for frying
  • Cinnamon: 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Apple: 1/2 quantity apple, pear & cherry compote, to serve (see 'Goes well with')
  • Self Raising Flour: 140g self-raising flour
  • Muscovado Sugar: 3 tbsp muscovado sugar or brown sugar
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions

  1. First make the Apple, pear & cherry compote (see 'Goes well with'). You'll need half the compote for this recipe.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, sugar and 1/2 tsp salt. In a jug, whisk the egg, milk, vanilla and melted butter. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the milk mixture gradually, whisking as you go to make a smooth batter. Ideally, let the mixture stand for 1 hr (or even overnight, covered in the fridge), although you can cook with it straight away.
  3. Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Melt a knob of butter, then drop in tbsps of the mixture to make pancakes about 10cm across. Cook for 2-3 mins until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip over and cook for 1 min more. Keep each batch warm while you use up the rest of the batter. Stack up the pancakes and serve with hot or cold compote, maple syrup and yogurt.
