Pancakes - Hotcakes

Puffy, fluffy, sweet hotcakes... ...Makes aprox 10

Ingredients:

2 Cups Self Raising Flour

2 Cups Milk

2 Eggs

2 Tablespoons Caster Sugar

Butter for frying

Step One:

Add all ingredients into a bowl together.

Step Two:

Mix with a whisk until smooth - no lumps.

I like to poor the mixture into a jug of some kind to save spooning the mixture onto the hot plate.

This is faster and less spillage. 

Step Two:

Pre-heat your hot plate to a medium heat.

I like to set everything up ready.

I pre-cut the butter for frying because I don't want the hot fry pan too go long without any pancakes cooking on it. 

I have found when it sits on the hot plate empty, even for a moment, it gets too hot and the temp becomes hard to control which = Burnt hotcakes!

Step Three:

Melt butter on pan.

Step Four:

Poor some mixture into the buttered Pan.

Then pick the pan up and roll it around to get the mixture to flow to the edges.

Step Five:

You will know the hotcake is read to flip when it starts to get lots of bubbles and the spatula glides under the hotcake easily.

Your hot cakes should look something like this when they are ready.

The hotcakes are tall and fluffy.

Serve them with whatever toppings you like!
