Nothing is better on a weekend morning than the smell of pancakes cooking on the stove - this recipe for Buttermilk pancakes is lovely, fluffy and incredibly moreish.

Ingredients

125g flour
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon bicarb of soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons melted butter (30g)
1 egg
250ml buttermilk
Butter for frying

Directions

The real secret to this recipe requires some patience...if you have it you will be well rewarded, so follow the recipe to the T.

Sift together all of your dry ingredients, make a well and add the egg, melted butter and buttermilk, stir to a thin creamy texture.

Now cover the bowl with a cloth and leave it to stand for at least1/2 an hour. Go and have a shower, catch up on the news or have a cuppa... but let the mixture be...

When you are ready to cook, check that the batter is not too thick and if need be, add a little more buttermilk.

Heat a heavy based pan to medium and add a little butter, ladle in enough batter to make a 10cm pancake. Let them cook until bubbles begin to pop on the surface which should be about 3 minutes. Turn and brown the other side.

These are fantastic...pile them up, place a generous amount of butter on top and drizzle over some maple syrup, honey or your favorite jam.
