These hotcakes are the best ever because all of the ingredient quantities are "1", which makes it simple to remember and scale up! 1 batch makes about 4 medium fluffy hotcakes.
Ingredients
1 cup SR Flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon (knob) butter
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon (knob) butter
Method
- Combine flour and sugar in a large bowl, make a well in the middle and whisk in milk and egg, whisk until well combined. Use milk to adjust the consistency of the batter to produce the thickness of hotcake desired. (Thick batter produces thick hotcakes, thin batter produces thin hotcakes.) Rest batter for 5 minutes.
- Melt butter in a large frypan and pour excess into the hotcake mixture, briefly whisk to combine. Pour hotcake mixture into frypan, cook for 2-3 minutes on medium heat until lots of bubbles form and begin to break. Flip hotcake and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute on the otherside until puffed and set. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve hotcakes with your favourite yoghurt and a drizzle of syrup.
Handy Tips
To make thinner pancakes, add more milk and substitute half plain flour for Self raising flour.
Add your favourite flavours to these, blueberries, grated apple, cinnamon, or dollops of ricotta etc.
