I’ve
always missed Pancake Day before but this year I particularly pinned it at
schedule together with Lunar New Year so I wouldn’t forget. My first attempt
was to do Jana’s pancake bunnies but unfortunately failed (not easy to
make the exact shape I want!), then I tried to make mini pancakes, again, not
as easy as I thought. (so hard to make the mini pancake at perfect rounded size!)
So I started over with the simplest method, not doing any fancy mini size or shapes,
and it’s just much easier for me.
Ingredients
-180g
plain flour.
-3g
baking powder.
-A pinch
of salt.
-2
medium eggs, beaten.
-40g
sugar.
-25g
vegetable oil.
-130g milk.
Method
-Whisk
eggs and sugar in a large bowl until sugar dissolves, add oil and milk to mix thoroughly.
-Whisk
flour, baking powder, salt in a separate bowl.
-Pour
flour mixture into milk mixture, beat until you have smooth pancake batter. (you
can add more flour or milk if the batter is too watery or too thick.)
-Rest
the batter in the fridge for 30 minutes.
-When
time is up, heat a non-stick frying pan with a small amount of oil over medium
high heat until the pan is getting hot, then reduce to low heat.
-Drop
pancake batter into the pan, when the surface starts to bubble, flip it over
and continue cooking until both sides are brown.
-Repeat
until batter is used up.
You can
serve it with
-Honey
or maple syrup.
-Lemon
and orange zest.
-Icing
sugar.
-Butter.
-Any
fruits of your choice.

每年都錯過的鬆餅日今年終於有跟上了!這段期間的英國超市都會在架上特別展示做鬆餅的材料,但因為現在幾乎都網購,也不太有機會去實體超市感受鬆餅日到來的氣氛,倒是今年終於很應景的也做了鬆餅(煎到第三輪才煎出我要的樣子),然後也隱隱約約覺得春天好像真的要來了呢。
