The Yorkshire Kitchen does... pancakes

Join us for the first in our series of The Yorkshire Kitchen does...

This week, Jamie's showing you how to make our favourite American-style fluffy pancakes, with 2 delicious toppings:

• Honey & cinnamon butter with bacon

• Chocolate butter with strawberries

Full recipe

Makes 10-12 pancakes

Ingredients

For the pancakes:

280g plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

2 tbsp golden caster sugar

250ml milk

2 eggs

Butter for frying

For the toppings:

Honey & cinnamon butter

Bacon

Chocolate butter

Strawberries

Milk and white chocolate for decorating

Recipe

1. Sift all of the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt and sugar) into a large mixing bowl

2. Add the 2 eggs and start to incorporate while adding the milk slowly until you have a smooth batter

3. Start heating a pan on a low-medium heat and add a slice of butter. Once the butter has melted and started bubbling, ladle in a dollop of the pancake batter. Leave the batter cook for around 3 minutes, or until it starts to bubble slightly on top.

4. Flip the pancake and cook on the other side for around 2 minutes. Continue to use all of the batter, or it can be stored in the fridge for a couple of days.

5. For the honey & cinnamon topping, fry some bacon and place it on top of the pancake. Add a generous dollop of honey & cinnamon butter and dig in!

6. For the chocolate topping, spread chocolate butter over the pancake and add strawberries to garnish (if covering the strawberries in chocolate, this can be prepared a few hours before, by melting the chocolate in the microwave, dipping the strawberries in and putting in the fridge until the chocolate is solid).
