Buttermilk is a key ingredient in this recipe for light fluffy pancakes. We like to serve these warm with a little butter and fresh strawberries but you could choose lemon and sugar or simply drizzle them with maple syrup.

Ingredients :

• 75g butter (melted)


• 125g self-raising white flour


• 2 tbsp icing sugar


• ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda


• Pinch of salt

• Strawberries

Preparation Method :

1. Melt the butter.
2. Put the flour, icing sugar, bicarbonate of soda and salt into a large bowl or jug and stir to combine.
3. Break the eggs into another bowl, add the buttermilk and beat together.

7. Stir in the melted butter.
8. Pour or scoop small mounds of the pancake mixture into the hot pan.
