Ingredients

  • 6 tbsp plain flour
  • pinch salt
  • 1 medium free-range egg
  • 9fl oz full-fat milk
  • butter or vegetable oil, for frying
  • 1 lemon, halved, for squeezing
  • caster sugar, for sprinkling
  • 1 banana, peeled and chopped
  • 4 tbsp toffee sauce

Method

  1. Sift the plain flour and the pinch of salt into a large bowl, make a well in the centre and crack the egg into it.
  2. Add the full-fat milk, whisking gradually from the centre outward, until the batter is smooth and thick but still runny.
  3. Heat a little of the butter or vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and pour off any excess so only a thin film remains.
  4. Add about 2 tablespoons of batter, swirl the pan to spread it evenly across the base, and cook for 1 minute until the underside is golden brown.
  5. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1 minute until golden brown there too, then move it to a plate.
  6. Serve the pancakes with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkling of caster sugar, or with the chopped banana and toffee sauce, repeating with the rest of the batter and keeping finished pancakes warm in a low oven if you want to eat them all together.
