Scotch Pancakes

By krystallondon

This morning I had a craving for Scotch Pancakes. I love these, especially when drizzled with a bit of golden syrup and they remind me of my childhood. These work best if the mixture is allowed to rest for atleast an hour (overnight is good). Give the batter a quick stir before you use it.

Ingredients

• 135 g plain flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp caster sugar
• 130 ml milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tbsp melted butter (allow to cool slightly)
• a good handful of sultanas/rasins
• zest of one lemon

Preparation

Step 1

1) Sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a large bowl. In seperate bowl lightly whisk milk and egg together, then add melted butter.

2) Pour milk into flour and mix using a fork until you have a smooth batter. Stir in the sultanas and lemon zest. Put in the fridge for atleast an hour.

3)Heat pan till medium/hot. If not using a non-stick pan melt a small amount of unsalted butter in the pan. Use a dessert spoon to blob some of the mixture in the pan. Wait until you see bubbles appear on the surface. Flip over. Cook until golden brown and risen to about 1 cm.
