Homemade pancake

Once in a week, I made pancake for my girls as lunch and snack to school. The girls like my pancake so much that they always request me to made for them. As I prefer to prepare different meals for them every day, I only fulfil their request no more than once in a week. The making of the homemade pancake is very simple and not much preparation work required (5 minutes for the preparation of batter and another 10 minutes to made 10 pieces of pancake at low heat). Since I already added sugar into the batter, the pancake can be eaten without any topping. Anyway, my kids and I love to eat the pancake with honey (small amount as the pancake itself tastes sweet). So yummy and delicious! You can serve it with any topping you like, say banana? I will try that one day since everyone in the family love banana!



The ingredients I used are simple:

1 1/2 cup of unbleached flour
1 1/2 cup of low fat milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Butter

Note: I like my pancake in full of milk flavour. If you don't, you may substitute the 1/2 cup of milk with 1/2 cup of water. The ingredients above should be able to make 10 pieces pancake.

And so are the steps:

1. Sift the flour into a mixing bowl.
2. Add milk slowly into the mixing bowl. Stir well.
3. Add eggs, sugar and salt into the batter and mix well. Set aside for 20 minutes.

4. Heat up the non-stick frying pan with small amount of butter. Set at low heat.
5. Pour a ladle of batter into the pan and move the pan clockwise so that the batter occupies the whole flat area of the pan.
6. When bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges turn golden brown (the edges are normally crispy), flip it over. When done, remove to a serving plate.

7. Continue steps 4 to 6 for another piece of pancake until all batter used up.
8. Serve with honey or kiwi jam, or any of your favourite topping.

Give it a try if you like pancake too!
