Spinach pancakes

Enjoy these spinach-based pancakes with berries and maple syrup, or remove the sugar from the batter and serve them savoury with bacon and a poached egg

Ingredients

• 125 g self-raising flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 0.5 tbsp sugar (any kind)
• 2 eggs
• 1 tbsp melted butter, plus extra for frying
• 100 ml milk
• 50 g baby spinach leaves, washed and chopped
• berries and maple syrup, to serve

Steps

1. Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, butter, milk and spinach in a blender and whizz until you get a smooth, bright green batter.
2. Heat a little more butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add small dollops to the pan, 2-3 at a time. Cook for 2 mins until the edges are set, and bubbles are rising to the surface, then flip and cook for 1-2 mins more. Keep warm while you cook the remaining batches.
3. Serve with berries and a drizzle of syrup to serve.
