Today I cooked all day :) part 1- Pancakes

1st dish of the day was Pancakes!!!

I started by separating 2 eggs (yolks in one bowl and whites in another), 2 cups of flour, 2 cups of milk, half a cup of sugar and to add more zest, vanilla concentrate, coco powder and rainbow sprinkles.

Start by beating the beeze knees out of the egg white until stiff. In a separate bowl, add egg yolk to flour and sugar and mix well. Add the milk bit by bit until its smooth and lastly a dash of the amazing vanilla concentrate.

NOTE: depending on your preference you can make it slightly runnier if you wish to make crepes (thin pancakes) and slightly thicker if you want american style pancakes (which is what  I made today)


Once your happy with the consistency of your batter fold in you egg whites to make it fluffy!! I then separated the batter into 2 batches and added the cocoa powder to one batch :)

To cook: start by placing a flat pan on a low heat and rub butter all over it. Using a round ladel or spoon, drop the batter into pan. how do you know if its cooked on one side? wait until you see bubbles appear (see picture below) and you know its time for you to flip it onto the other side. Add sprinkles on the bubbling side to add some colour :)

Enjoy with maples syrup, chocolate spread, lemon and sugar, fresh fruit or on its own :)
