- All purpose flour
- Milk
- An egg
- Vanilla essence
- Frying pans
- Large jug (or just a bowl)
- Spatula
- Whisk
- Ladle (optional)
- Mix batter
- Put some flour in a large jug/bowl- quantity: about half the amount of batter you want. Consider hunger levels now
- Add an egg and mash it to oblivion with the whisk so the whisk goes all clumpy
- Add milk GRADUALLY (whisking in between doses) until the batter has the same thickness as delicious double cream
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract/essence
- Cook
- Put 1 dessert spoon of oil in the pan and get it HOT- Should shimmer like Edward Cullen
- Pour a little of the batter in the pan and immediately start swirling it around- if you used the jug, you don't have to use a ladle for this part
- Flip pancake when you see tiny bubbles in the middle/when the edges start crisping
- Make sure there's oil in the pan for each pancake, and that the oil is super hot, or the pancake will stick and burn and you will be a disappointment to us all
- Add fancy stuff- rasins, chopped apples and chocolate chips all work well
