The ultimate fluffy American pancakes

PANCAKES. After a long week, there is nothing better than a stack of pancakes on a Sunday morning. They make a filling and balanced breakfast or a great sweet treat or snack. So below is my go-to pancake recipe topped with stewed berries, maple syrup and melted chocolate to fulfil all your weekend brunch needs.

You will need:

Self raising flour

Milk of your choice

Baking powder

1 egg

Mixed frozen berries

Maple syrup

Melted chocolate or chocolate spread of your choice

To make:

In a bowl, add 2-3 large tablespoons of self raising flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Crack in the egg, add a splash of milk and mix. The mixture should be fairly thick, but add more for a thinner pancake consistency. Let it sit for 5 minutes whilst you heat a frying pan with a small amount of butter.

Meanwhile put a large handful of frozen berries in a saucepan with a splash of water and maple syrup and let it simmer on a low heat. Once the butter is melted, put a small circle of mixture in the frying pan. When bubbles start to form, flip the pancake. Add to a plate and put another in the pan. Layer each pancake with melted chocolate or spread as you pile them onto the plate. Top with the stewed berries and serve. 

Enjoy, and let me know if you give them a try!

Until next time,
