The best pancakes to start your day

Ingredients

Ingredients

• 1 cups greek yoghurt
• 1 large egg
• 2 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 cups plain flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
• 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Mix the Greek yoghurt, milk, vanilla and maple syrup in a bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, then add the egg. Gently mix until just combined, don’t overmix!
4. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
5. Heat a lightly greased non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Add about ¼ cup of batter per pancake.
6. Cover the pan with a lid while the pancake cooks. This helps the heat circulate and cooks the middle properly while keeping the pancake nice and fluffy.
7. Once bubbles appear and the edges look set, flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden.
8. Caramelise your banana slices in a little butter and maple syrup.
9. Stack your pancakes, top with the caramelised bananas and finish with a little square of butter so it melts over everything, and then maple syrup.
