Low Fat Sweet and Savoury Pancakes

Pancakes are really easy and something that the whole family can get involved with from making the batter to adding the fillings, and kids love them, especially the flipping!

The most important thing is the temperature of the frying pan and the preparation of the batter. The perfect temperature of the frying pan is when oil starts lightly smoking. It is the time to pour the mixture in.

Another important thing to get right is the consistency of your batter. For traditional 'bottom of the frying pan' pancakes, it can't be too runny because will fall to bits but it can't be too thick or have any lumps.

You have the proper consistency when you take a spoon of it and it just falls lightly of it.

Remember to leave the mixture for 20 minutes so that flour has the time to absorb into the milk.

To prepare pancakes use medium sized pan it would be easier to make them.
