"INSTANT" PANCAKE MIX

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients in a lidded container. Shake to mix.
• Use the mix within 3 months.
• Heat an electric griddle or frying pan to 350 degrees F. Heat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Whisk together the egg whites and the buttermilk in a small bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the melted butter.
• Combine the buttermilk mixture with the egg yolk mixture in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until thoroughly combined. Pour the liquid ingredients on top of the pancake mix. Using a whisk, mix the batter just enough to bring it together. Don't try to work all the lumps out.
• Check to see that the griddle is hot by placing a few drops of water onto to the griddle. The griddle is ready if the water dances across the surface.
• Lightly butter the griddle. Wipe off thoroughly with a paper towel. (No butter should be visible.)
• Gently ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle and sprinkle on fruit if desired. When bubbles begin to set around the edges of the pancake and the griddle-side of the cake is golden, gently flip the pancakes. Continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the pancake is set.
• Serve immediately or remove to a towel-lined baking sheet and cover with a towel. Hold in a warm place for 20 to 30 minutes.

BASIC PANCAKE MIX

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients.
• Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk.
• Start with 1 1/4 cups milk, adding up to another 1/4 cup if necessary, as you mix it with the flour.
• Add the two eggs, vanilla if using and oil, whisking until mixed but still a bit lumpy.
• Heat a frying pan (if it is not non-stick, you will need to melt a bit of butter or oil in it) and when hot, pour in some pancake mix.
• How much depends on how experienced you are at flipping pancakes and how big you want them. We do about 1/4 cup a time for small, easy-to-flip pancakes but you could make this as much as 1/2 cup of pancake mix.
• If you are adding fruit, I like to sprinkle it on top of the pancake now.
• When the pancake starts to bubble on top and is golden brown on the cooked side, turn it and continue cooking until both sides are golden brown.
• The first pancake is always a bit of a test so adjust the batter by adding more flour if you need to make it thicker or more milk if you want a thinner pancake. In either case, just add a few spoonfuls at a time until you get it right.
• Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter. You may need to adjust the heat as pan tends to get hotter as you keep making pancakes.
• Keep the cooked pancakes covered with a tea towel, to keep them warm while you finish cooking the rest.

HOMEMADE PANCAKE MIX

Steps:

• Make the mix: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together. Transfer mix to an airtight container. Write "batter recipe" on a note card, and tape it to the canister. Store for up to 6 months.
• To make the pancakes: Put 1 cup of mix into a medium mixing bowl. In a separate small mixing bowl, combine milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat the egg with a fork or whisk until it's well incorporated with the milk and extract. Continue whisking the milk while you pour in the melted butter. Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with the pancake mix. Use a spatula to stir to combine. Don't worry about getting all the lumps out.
• Cook the pancakes: Set a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once it's hot enough for a few droplets of water to dance on the top, add a tablespoon of butter. Once the butter melts, pour 1/3 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet to form a pancake. Repeat until the pan is filled, but not too crowded. Once bubbles form on the top and the edges of the pancake look slightly drier than the middle, flip the pancake. You should cook the pancake for about 3 minutes on the first side and 1 to 2 minutes after flipping. The pancakes should be lightly golden on both sides, with crispy edges.
• To serve: Serve with maple syrup or powdered sugar and fruit. If feeding a crowd, keep warm on a plate in a low oven until ready to serve.

PERFECT PANCAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• Put 100g plain flour and a pinch of salt into a large mixing bowl.
• Make a well in the centre and crack 2 eggs into the middle.
• Pour in about 50ml from the 300ml of semi-skimmed milk and 1 tbsp sunflower oil then start whisking from the centre, gradually drawing the flour into the eggs, milk and oil. Once all the flour is incorporated, beat until you have a smooth, thick paste. Add a little more milk if it is too stiff to beat.
• Add a good splash of milk and whisk to loosen the thick batter. While still whisking, pour in a steady stream of the remaining milk. Continue pouring and whisking until you have a batter that is the consistency of slightly thick single cream.
• Heat the pan over a moderate heat, then wipe it with oiled kitchen paper.
• Ladle some batter into the pan, tilting the pan to move the mixture around for a thin and even layer. Quickly pour any excess batter into the mixing bowl, return the pan to the heat.
• Leave to cook, undisturbed, for about 30 secs. If the pan is the right temperature, the pancake should turn golden underneath after about 30 secs and will be ready to turn.
• Hold the pan handle, ease a palette knife under the pancake, then quickly lift and flip it over. Make sure the pancake is lying flat against the base of the pan with no folds, then cook for another 30 secs before turning out onto a warm plate.
• Continue with the rest of the batter, serving them as you cook or stack onto a plate. You can freeze the pancakes for 1 month, wrapped in cling film or make them up to a day ahead.

• Whisk the milk, butter, vanilla and eggs together in a large bowl. Add 2 1/4 cups pancake mix and whisk vigorously to form a thick batter (it's okay if there are some lumps). Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. (Alternatively, heat a nonstick electric griddle to medium.) Ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, spreading it into a 4 1/2- to 5-inch round; repeat to make a second pancake. (If using a griddle, make as many pancakes as will fit on your griddle plate at one time.) Cook until the pancakes are golden on the bottom and bubbly on top, 45 to 60 seconds. Flip the pancakes and cook until the undersides are golden and the batter is cooked through, 45 seconds more. Transfer the pancakes to the baking sheet in the oven, tucking them between the kitchen towels. Repeat with the remaining batter to make more pancakes. Serve pancakes with butter and maple syrup.

PANCAKE MIX DESSERT CREPES

Steps:

• For the crepes: In a bowl, whisk together the pancake mix and sugar. Combine the milk, vanilla and eggs in a pitcher. While whisking, slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mix until smooth.
• Heat a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a teaspoon of the melted butter and swirl the pan so the butter covers the bottom of the pan. Add 2 ounces of the batter to the skillet, swirling the pan again to distribute the batter into a thin and even layer. Cook until golden on the first side, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Then carefully flip and cook for 1 more minute on the second side. Remove the cooked crepe from the skillet to a cutting board or plate. Repeat with the remaining crepes and butter, stacking he finished crepes in a single layer to cool.
• To serve: Lay a crepe onto a clean surface. Add a tablespoon of the whipped cream cheese to the center then top with 1 tablespoon of the preserves and spread. Fold in half, then in half again to create a triangle, and set aside. Repeat with the remaining crepes. Top with berries, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, a little whipped cream and a mint leaf to finish.

Continue with the remainder of the batter, adjusting the heat to keep it at medium and re-oiling the pan surface as needed.
