American Pancakes



9oz plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp caster sugar
250ml milk
2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
2oz unsalted butter, melted

Beat the eggs into the milk and add the melted butter.

Sift the flour with the baking powder, salt and sugar. Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the milk.

Using a wooden spoon beat the mixture quickly to make a batter. Heat a heavy based frying pan. Grease with butter and pour in the batter to make rounds approximately 8cm/3¾ inch diameter.

Cook until bubbles start to appear on the surface, this will take approximately 1 minute. Flip the pancake over and cook the other side.

Continue until you have used up all the batter. Serve the pancakes and pour over the maple syrup.

This has got to be my favorite breakfast.
