Method

added removed changed

  1. Added step 1:

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.

    2 min

  2. Added step 2:

    Separate the egg, putting the white in a clean medium bowl. Whisk the milk and the yolk into the dry ingredients until smooth.

    3 min

  3. Added step 3:

    Whip the egg white until stiff, then gently fold it into the batter. (Skip this if you used buttermilk; the batter will be thick enough.)

    4 min

  4. Added step 4:

    Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat and grease it with a little butter.

    3 min

  5. Added step 5:

    Pour in small ladles of batter, a few at a time. Cook for about 2 minutes until the edges look dry and bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook 1–2 minutes more until golden. Repeat with the rest, buttering the pan as needed.

    15 min

  6. Added step 6:

    Serve warm with butter, maple syrup and berries.
