Pancakes with yoghurt, honey and fruit

Recipes

Ingredients

1 cup self-raising flour
1/2 cup oat bran
1 1/2 cups milk
1 egg

200g natural or Greek yoghurt
1 punnet strawberries or other fresh fruit, honey or pure maple syrup to drizzle

Method

1. To make the pancake mixture, combine the flour, oat bran, milk, egg and salt in a bowl and mix with an electric beater on high for 1–2 minutes until smooth.

2. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and pour in 1/4 cup of pancake mixture. Cook for 2 minutes or until lightly golden and flip over to cook the other side.
