Breakfast Pancakes with Mixed Berries

I love making (& eating!) these on a lazy Sunday morning. The recipe is from Bill's Basics by Bill Granger.



I serve them with mixed berries or whatever fruit I have and a generous drizzle of the good quality honey. The original recipe serves them with maple syrup instead and additional yoghurt. I hope you enjoy them with whatever you like on your pancakes!

A small pan will give you around 24 pancakes as opposed to a large pan which will make around 12 pancakes.

  • 2 tbsp lemon suice
  • 300ml milk
  • 200g plain flour
  • 3tsp baking powder
  • 2tbsp caster sugar (preferably raw)
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 30g butter, melted and cooled (plus some extra for cooking
To serve
  • berries
  • honey
Stir together the lemon juice and milk and leave for 5 minutes. Stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar and eggs, melted butter and a pinch of sea salt. Stir in the milk with the lemon juice.

Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and brush lightly with butter. Use 2-3 tbsp of batter for each pancake. Cook the pancake for 2 minutes, until bubbles appear on the surface, then turn over and cook for a further minute. Keep them warm on a plate until you cook the rest. Serve them with berries and/or whatever fruit you like and a drizzle of honey.
