Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 170g/6oz self-raising flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 115g/4oz caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 275ml/10fl oz milk
  • 230g/8oz smoked streaky bacon
  • maple syrup
  • butter for frying

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and caster sugar into a bowl.
  • Using a whisk, add the eggs and the milk. Be careful not to overwhisk. Put to one side.
  • Put the bacon on an oven tray and bake until crisp.
  • Remove and brush over a little of the maple syrup.
  • To cook the pancakes, preheat a non-stick frying pan. Add a little butter and pour around three spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan - the pancakes should be quite small. Cook until golden brown and turn over to colour the other side. Remove and place on a large plate.
  • To serve, pile the pancakes on the plate and arrange the bacon around and on top. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve.
