A Breakfast Treat

By Patrick Fitz-Gibbon


This recipe is truly a treat for breakfast time or at any time really. They are fast and simple to make and in addition to that they taste totally divine. Though I have to warn you that if you are following a low fat diet then they should possibly be steered clear of. But they are undoubtedly worth dropping off the wagon for.

Listed below is what you will need

Pancakes

200g Self Rising Flour

100g Caster Sugar

1 tsp Ground Cinnamon

1 Medium sized egg

200ml Whole milk

2 Apples, peeled and grated

1 tsp Butter

Maple Syrup Butter

85g Butter that has been softened

3 tbsp Maple syrup

Now mix the flour and the sugar and cinnamon together and when carried out make a well in the middle of the mixture. Beat the egg and the milk together and afterwards pour into the well. Take a spoon (preferably a wooden one) and lightly mix till all the ingredients are combined. Afterwards stir in the apple which you previously grated.

Next heat the butter in a pan (ideally an anodized one) over a low heat until the butter has melted and begins to bubble. After that add tablespoons of mixture to form 31/2 inch circles. Cook each pancake for about one minute until it is bubbling slightly and it looks set, afterwards flip it over and cook the other side for a further 30 seconds until it is cooked through. The pancakes ought to be golden in color however if they are not turn up the heat a little but not too much. As soon as they are cooked remove from the pan and keep them in a warm place. carry on with the procedure right up until you have used up all the mixture. It is not essential to keep adding butter but you may want to if the pan looks a little dry.

To make the syrup butter, you will need to lightly melt the butter in an anodized saucepan over a very low heat. Add the maple syrup and stir gently until they both are combined, afterwards place the pancakes onto a warm plate and pour over the butter. Perfect!

If you desire, you can add some fresh fruits to the dish to produce some color, blueberries and strawberries go especially well, nonetheless this is not necessary as the dish in my view is great on its own. This dish serves about four to six people, but this depends on how hungry you are it may possibly solely serve 2 to 4 so assure you make plenty, as I can assure you they won't last very long!
