Ingredients
HERO PANCAKE BATTER
1 heaped mug of self-raising flour (approx 250g)
1 mug of semi-skimmed milk (approx 230ml)
1 large free-range egg
CLASSIC CRÊPES
a splash of milk
olive oil
golden caster sugar, for sprinkling
½ a lemon
½ an orange
Method
Watch the video below to see how Jamie makes his hero pancake batter. Fast forward to 3min 38seconds to watch him turn the batter into perfect crêpes!
- To make the hero pancake batter, place the flour, milk and a pinch of salt into a large bowl. Crack in the egg and whisk until you have a smooth batter.
- To make classic crêpes, let down the batter with a splash of milk until it’s the consistency of double cream and easily runs off a spoon.
- Place a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat, rub the pan with a little olive oil, then pour in a thin layer of batter, swirling it up and around the edges. Cook on one side for 1 minute, then flip the crêpe and cook for another minute, or until lightly golden.
- Slide onto a plate, dust with sugar, and serve St Clement-style with lemon and orange wedges for squeezing. Repeat with the remaining batter.
