Ingredients
2 eggs
100g caster sugar
275g plain white flour
4 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
60g melted butter
350ml milk
Method
Whisk the eggs and sugar together. Sieve dry ingredients together and fold gently into the base. Gradually whisk in the milk and finally the melted butter.
Heat the cast iron pan on a medium heat. Brush with a very little oil, put tablespoons of the batter well apart on the pan. Cook on one side until the bubbles burst, about two minutes.
Flip over and continue to cook on the other side until golden. This recipe will make about 30. Eat warm served with butter and caster sugar.
