Dairy Free Blueberry Pancakes
Pancake Tuesday is very early this year, but it’s always welcome in this house. Our favourites are “Irish pancakes“, flat, like crepes, but lately I’ve made American style ones a few times. This is a fab recipe for blueberry pancakes which my friend Sinéad from Bumbles of Rice recommended (originally found on BBC Good Food) and I’ve adapted it slightly.
You will need:
300 ml almond milk*
200g self raising flour
1 egg
Pinch of salt
Teasp. sunflower oil
Large handful of blueberries
You could use any milk alternative but almond is my favourite for this recipe.
Steps:
The quick way: Blend flour, baking powder, salt, egg and milk together using a hand blender or hand mixer. When it is smooth add in most of the blueberries, hold back some for serving.
By hand: Mix flour, baking powder and salt, make a well in the centre and add milk and beaten egg. Add blueberries last.
Heat a teaspoon of sunflower oil in a pan or flat griddle. When oil hot pour in dollops of the mixtureusually 3 per pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes and then turn over and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and cook three more until all the batter is used up.
Serve with maple syrup and the rest of the blueberries. For extra deliciousness add a few slices of streaky bacon.
Enjoy!
