This recipe idea for American style pancakes is one to try if you fancy something different on pancake day, or any day for that matter - with a subtle flavour and sweetness from the Chocolate Stout. Plus you get to drink the left over beer!
Recipe (Makes 6 depending on size):200 grams self raising flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 tbsp caster sugar
3 eggs
25 grams butter (Plus extra for cooking)
200 ml Chocolate Oatmeal Stout or equivalent.
Method:
- Melt the butter in a pan on a low heat whilst you mix the other ingredients together.
- Mix the flour, baking powder and caster sugar together in a bowl and then make a well in the centre.
- Whisk together the eggs, melted butter and beer in a jug and then add to the flour.
- Whisk until the mixture forms a smooth batter.
- Add a knob of butter to the pan, make sure it is sizzling hot and then add a ladle full of mixture.
- Cook until you see bubbles forming on the surface then flip onto the other side and cook for another minute or until cooked through.
- Pile the pancakes up on a plate and serve with Maple Syrup, Strawberries/Blueberries and cream or alternatively serve with Maple Syrup and Bacon.
- Enjoy!
