Pancakes

Ingredients: 1½ cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder pinch of salt 1 teaspoon sugar 2 large eggs, beaten 2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled 1 1/3 cups milk butter for frying Methods: 01.The easiest way to make these is to put all the ingredients into a blender and blitz. But if you do mix up the batter by hand in a bowl, make a well in the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, beat in the eggs, melted butter, and milk, and transfer to a pitcher: it’s much easier to pour the batter into the pan than to spoon it. I like to leave the batter for 20 minutes before using it; and you may then want to add more milk to the mixture if you’re frying in the blini pan, so that it runs right to the edges. 02.When you cook the pancakes, all you need to remember is that when the upper side of the pancake is blistering and bubbling it’s time to cook the second side, and this needs only about 1 minute, if that.
