Ingredients

1litre milk • 6 eggs • 300g wholemeal flour •
50g sugar • Pinch of salt • 40g butter

Method

Mix all the ingredients well together with a whisk • Leave to sit for 30 minutes • Melt the butter in a non-stick pan and then pour most of it into the batter and mix again • Wipe the rest of the pan with some kitchen paper • Add a ladle of the batter to the pan & swirl the pan to spread it over the base evenly (if the batter is too thick or thin you can add a little milk or flour to compensate) • When the pancake starts to colour around the edges slide a spatula in and turn it over • Cook for another minute and remove from pan • Wipe the pan with the same kitchen paper that has some of the butter on it and repeat the process • Serve with your favourite topping

Note:
To cook pancakes for a large number of people you can boil a pot of water and place a plate on top • When you’ve cooked a pancake, place it on the plate and cover with tin foil • Stack up the pancakes as you make them and the water bath will keep them warm so there are no long delays for your hungry herd
