Method

  • step 1

    Put the flour in a bowl and make a well in the centre. Crack the egg in the middle and pour in a quarter of the milk. Use an electric or balloon whisk to thoroughly combine the mixture. Once you have a paste, mix in another quarter and once lump free, mix in the remaining milk. Leave to rest for 20 mins. Stir again before using.

  • step 2

    Heat a small, non-stick frying pan with a splash of oil. When hot, pour a small amount of the mixture into the pan and swirl around to coat the base – you want a thin layer. Cook for a few mins until golden brown on the bottom, then turn over and cook until golden on the other side. Repeat until you have used all the mixture, stirring the mixture in between pancakes and adding more oil for frying as necessary. Pile the pancakes up between sheets of baking parchment or cook to order. Serve with the pancake filling of choice.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKE AHEAD

This mixture keeps for a few days if you store it covered in the fridge. Give it a good whisk before using.

How on earth are these dairy free when egg is used?

Typicalgrammar

Eggs come from chickens and not cows. Cows produce dairy, hence dairy free as they are using hemp or coconut milk.

Made using coconut milk from a carton and gluten-free flour, these are delicious, fluffy and light.

I used 80:20 buckwheat flour with cornflour, and coconut milk for the first batch (almond milk for the second batch) - didn’t look as good as these, but tasted good (especially the coconut milk batch).

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes absolutely, you can use any plant-based milk. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Needs ¼ tsp Salt and 1 tsp Sugar to brown properly. May also need to be thinned with water.
