These are intended to be thick breakfast pancakes (as in the US) rather than thin crepe-style pancakes.

Ingredients:

250g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp caster sugar
1 tsp salt
3 eggs, beaten
150ml milk
60g melted butter

Method:

Sift the flour, baking powder and sugar into a bowl mix gently (to ensure the pancakes are light) then add the remaining ingredients and mix into a batter. Lightly butter a heated frying pan and add ladlefuls of batter.

When bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancakes flip them over and fry for 1 minute further. Pile them up on a plate and keep warm in an oven as you finish cooking the remaining batter. Serve with plenty of butter and a jug of maple syrup or runny honey.
