Fluffy Pancakes

✯ Hello Shiny Stars! ✯

"I love you almost as much as I love pancakes."

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

A few days ago we celebrated Shrove Tuesday, which is known as Pancake Day in some countries. It has been celebrated by Britons for centuries and its exact date changes every year because it is 47 days before Easter Sunday.

There are two types of pancakes. They can be thin and light or round and fluffy. In many other languages there are even two different words for them.

Today I would like to share with you my recipe for a fluffy pancake that I made on Pancake Day, but they are also perfect for the upcoming Valentine's Day.

The ingredients are listed in the picture as well as below and if you choose the alternatives mentioned in the brackets, your pancakes will also be dairy free.

- 2 eggs
- 300 millilitres of milk (I use either coconut or rice milk)
- 25 grams melted butter (I always use vegetable margarine)
- 15 tablespoon flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon white sugar

Method:

- Whisk together the milk and egg, then add the melted butter or margarine.
- Add all the other ingredients into the bowl and mix them together. I did it by hand, but you can also use a blender.
- Heat a non-stick pan on a medium heat and spoon some batter into the pan.
- When the upper side of the pancake starts to blister, it is time to fry the second side.
- Continue frying until both sides are golden.

Serve with maple syrup. 

Enjoy yourself!  :)
