Hi, everyone welcome back to my blog. Today I will show you how to make some traditional English pancakes.
Now the first thing you're gonna need is:
125 grams of plain or all-purpose flour
2 eggs beaten in a bowl
300 milliliters of whole milk you could also use plant-based milk if you like
Then half a teaspoon of salt
Now the first step is to just mix the salts with the flour. Give it a quick mix around and then dump it into a bowl. Really easy simple four-step give it's a bit of a whisk if you want and then what you want to do is make a well in the middle of this flour and it's, That well.
We're just gonna break in the eggs and then it's a simple case of mixing mix. All this together until it forms a kind of sticky dough and you can't really mix it anymore with the whisk and at that point, we're gonna start to add the milk.
You want to add the milk little by little until each part is combined and this is just a method that I've always used and it seems to work for me. I think I added maybe three or four rounds of milk mix and then you want quite a thin batter for these pancakes.
After you've done this step, We're just gonna transfer this batter into the joke that we had the milk in, and then all I'm gonna do with this is just let this rest, Then the best place to rest is in the fridge for about 20 minutes. At least the more time in the fridge the better than after 20 minutes, I want to get a hot pan and I'm just using some nonstick spray you could also use oil if you like, and just one ladle one layer at a time you want quite thin pancakes because that's traditionally what the English Pancakes are.
Now cook on medium to high heat and when you can start to see the bubbles forming up on the top, You know it's ready to flip over it doesn't take too long because these are thin, so it won't take very long to cook at all so maybe two to three minutes on each side and you can always flip it back again if you think you need a bit more color.
But, generally speaking, that's the color that you're gonna get nice golden e-bits and bits are a bit paler, Here I'm just doing a few more so in again with the ladle of batter, and you just want to let that rest for a few minutes just to let it cook through and then flip it across this batter. I think made about seven or eight pancakes
I generally like to serve these with lemon and sugar but by all means, add whatever you want to the top. I hope you enjoyed it that was my traditional English pancake recipe and I'll see you next time thanks for Reading and if you make these do let me know in the comments I always love reading them thanks, guys.
