Sift together
- 1 cup of organic plain (all purpose or cake) flour
- 1 T of vanilla caster sugar
- 1teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
Drop into the centre
- One large organic egg
With a wooden spoon slowly beat in
- 1 1/4 cups (185mls) of buttermilk
- 30g of butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon of orange blossom water
Heat your griddle pan and cook on a moderate heat, lightly greasing the pan and the inside of the pancake moulds, with a smear of butter.
When the bubbles appear on the top, ease the pancake out of the mould and flip with a spatula. Cook until lightly browned on this side too and keep warm between sheets of kitchen towel whilst finishing the batch of batter.
Serve with homemade yoghurt sweetened with thyme honey, slices of chopped banana and a simple compote of berries cooked down gently with a little sugar and the juice of half an orange.
