SCOTCH PANCAKES



Scotch Pancakes image

Simple to make Scotch pancakes. Slightly more dense than American ones but much sweeter!

Provided by richardhanney

Time 30m

Yield Makes 12 Coaster sized pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 4

100g Caster sugar
200g Self-raising flour
2 eggs
Few splashes of milk

Steps:

  • Add the flour and sugar to the bowl (for best results, use sieve).
  • Add the eggs to the flour/sugar mix and whisk. You will now have a floury, dry, lumpy mixture.
  • Smooth this mixture out by gradually adding and whisking in splashes of milk. The aim is to have a relatively thick, smooth batter, about the same consistency as thick double cream, so you will not need a lot of milk.
  • Oil the pan using a brush. Don't just pour oil into the pan.
  • As a rule of thumb the pancake is ready to be turned when bubbles start to form on the surface. Turn and cook until the surface is golden brown (in total about 2 minutes). Remove from pan and re-grease if necessary.
  • TIP - Don't make them too big. The bigger the are the harder it is to cook evenly. Keep them hot in the oven at about 110c while you cook in batches.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the pancakes will taste. Look for organic flours, fresh eggs, and real butter.
  • Make sure your baking powder is fresh. Old baking powder can make your pancakes flat and dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixed batter can make your pancakes tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the baking powder to work its magic and give your pancakes a light, fluffy texture.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the pancakes will burn on the outside and be raw on the inside.
  • Flip the pancakes only once. Flipping them too often can make them tough.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream are all classic options.

Conclusion:

Scotch pancakes are a delicious and versatile breakfast food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite ingredients, Scotch pancakes are sure to be a hit.
