Yummy Pancakes for Dinner

Last night I didn't feel like cooking a standard meal instead I made some yummy thick and fluffy pancakes. Pancakes can be eaten anytime of the day and you can make them specific to your taste, wether it be savoury or sweet.

Lately I've had a bit of a sweet tooth and couldn't pass the idea up of having freshly squeezed lemon with a dash of sugar sprinkled over these delicious pancakes.

I usually use 2 to 3 eggs in this recipe however I only had one egg and some custard powder in the cupboard. Custard powder is mostly made from egg and it adds a nice taste and colour to the mix.

To make the pancakes separate out the white and the yolk into different bowls.
Mix 1 cup of plain flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 teaspoons custard powder and 3/4 cup of milk to the yolk and mix to a smooth consistency.

Whisk the egg white with a pinch of salt until it forms white peaks. Lightly fold the egg white to the batter making sure the batter is a consistent colour.

Heat your pan on a low to medium heat and add a little butter. Pour some of the batter in the pan and rock the pan so the batter spreads out and return it to the heat. Once the pancake is covered in holes flip the pancake over. The pancake should look golden brown and should smell fantastic. If the batter starts to thicken you can add a little extra milk to thin it out.

Remember you can serve your pancakes with melted butter and maple syrup drizzled over them. If this isn't to your taste honey, jam or my favourite lemon and sugar tastes sensational.
