How to make bacon pancakes with blueberries
- Mix up the pancake batter – add the flour and baking powder to a mixing bowl and make a well in the middle.
- Break in the egg and pour in around a ⅓ of the milk – stir slowly taking a little of the flour into the mix each time until you have a smooth thick batter – then slowly add the remainder of the milk until it’s all used up and the batter is smooth.
- Cook the pancakes – melt a knob of butter in a frying pan, when it’s sizzling hot pour in a ladleful of pancake batter and leave the pan still until bubbles come to the surface, then flip the pancake and brown on the other side.
- Cook the bacon - whilst you're cooking the pancakes - heat the grill to high and cook the bacon, turning regularly until crisp and cooked through to your liking.
- Serve the pancakes – once cooked slide the pancakes onto a plate and load the bacon and blueberries on top and drizzle over the maple syrup.
