Ingredients

  • 1 mug of wholemeal self-raising flour
  • 1 mug of semi-skimmed milk or your favourite unsweetened, fortified plant milk
  • 1 large free-range egg
  • for sweet pancakes: 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • for savoury pancakes: 50g crumbled feta cheese
  • olive oil spray, and fruit or vegetables of your choice (used in the method)

Let's cook

  1. Put the flour, milk and egg in a large bowl with a small pinch of sea salt and whisk until smooth. A heaped mug of flour gives fluffier pancakes. Stir in the vanilla or the feta if you are using them.
  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and spray lightly with oil. Spoon in the batter, press in your chosen fruit or vegetables, and cook until golden underneath.
  3. Flip and cook until the second side is lightly golden. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
