Whether you like the traditional topping of lemon and sugar or something more adventurous - these pancakes are fantastic for pancake day (and any other time of the year!). This recipe makes 6-8 pancakes depending on the size. Fate Pancakes freeze well.
INGREDIENTS 300g Fate All Purpose Mix 30g Custard powder (not custard mix)
1⁄2 tsp salt 80g caster sugar 75ml oil
450ml water
Place the Fate Low Protein All Purpose Mix into a jug, and stir in the custard powder, salt and caster sugar.
Using a baby’s bottle, measure the oil and water and place into a separate jug. Then pour about half of the liquid onto the dry ingredients. Using a fork or a wire whisk, quickly stir until smooth, thick and creamy, then add the remaining liquid, and mix until blended well.
Place a frying pan over a gentle heat. Do not add any oil. Add about 2-3 tbsp of pancake mixture to the pan. Use the back of the spoon to gently spread the mixture to the edge of the pan. Do this gently without lifting the spoon away from the mixture. It is important that you do not have the pan too hot to begin with, as the mixture will cook before you have time to spread it!
Turn the heat up and leave the pancake to cook for about 1 minute over a high heat, until the top is dry and the base is golden brown. Turn the pancake over and cook for a further minute or so. Place onto a plate or wire rack while you cook the remaining pancakes. Serve with your favourite topping.
