How to make this recipe

Preheat oven to 200°C

Start by placing the streaky bacon on a lined baking tray with a drizzle or spray of rapeseed oil. Pop in the oven, timer set to 15 minutes.

Then in a large mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients, including the granulated sugar, flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.

Now whisk the wet ingredients in a separate bowl, combining the egg, milk and melted butter. Slowly pour the wet into the dry whilst whisking until a smooth consistency is achieved.

Lightly coat a non-stick pan with rapeseed oil. Once the pan is hot (on a medium heat), using a large spoon (approx 2 tbsp), add the pancake batter into the pan, to make around 3 pancakes at a time.

Pancake mixture being added with metal spoon to the frying pan to make 3 pancakes on stove with batter mixture in a metal bowl with a whisk.

Cupboard Essentials

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C

  • Place the streaky bacon on a lined baking tray with a drizzle/ spray of rapeseed oil. Pop in the oven, timer set to 15 minutes.
  • Start by combining the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. That’s the granulated sugar, flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • Whisk the wet ingredients in a separate bowl, combining the egg, milk and melted butter. Slowly pour the wet into the dry whilst whisking until a roughly smooth consistency is achieved.
