Ingredients

1 cup milk or plant-based milk
1 tbs white vinegar
1 cup self-raising flour
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 tbs sugar
Butter or oil

Method

Step 1

Combine the vinegar and milk and allow to sit for at least ten minutes.
Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the flour, bicarbonate of soda and sugar. Make a well in the middle, then gradually mix in the milk and vinegar mixture while stirring.
Step 3

Allow to rest for at least 30 minutes. This is an important step as it allows the gluten in the flour to relax – and it will also help to smooth out the lumps.
Step 4

Heat a fry pan and, when sufficiently hot add a knob of butter or equivalent. Pour in a small amount of pancake batter and cook until there are bubbles on top and the bottom is golden brown. Flip it over and cook until the other side has browned, then serve on a plate. Repeat until you have 7-8 small pancakes (or 4 large ones).
Step 5

Serve individually or in a stack, topped with maple syrup and cream or lemon juice and sugar.
