Mabes Makes: Lemon Berry Pancakes

by Mabel Lloyd

Classic, fluffy pancakes topped with blueberry yoghurt and fresh fruit. Perfect for Pancake Day or a heavenly brunch treat. You can also mix a handful of fresh berries into the mix if you'd like to give them a fruity twist!

Serves 2-3

Ingredients:

  • 140g plain flour (sieved)
  • 1 heaped tsp baking powder (sieved)
  • 1 free range egg
  • 175ml milk
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • Zest of a small lemon

Toppings:

  • Handful of mixed berries
  • 1 tbsp treacle or honey
  • Chia seeds
  • 4 tbsp yoghurt

Method:

1. Whisk the egg and milk together in a jug

2. In a large bowl, sieve the flour with the baking powder, sugar and a pinch of salt

3. Make a well in the centre of the flour mix and slowly whisk in the egg and milk until you get a smooth consistency. Add a splash more milk if its too thick

4. Stir in the lemon zest

5. Heat a non-stick frying pan with a small knob of butter and cook the pancakes on one side for 1-2 mins until they start to bubble then flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds - 1 min until golden

6. Stack the pancakes and serve with yoghurt, fruit, chia seeds and a drizzle of sweet treacle!

7. You can stack them up and keep them warm in the oven on a low heat if you are doing a big batch!
