Fruity Pancakes
fruity pancakes
Christmas flavoured pancakes for breakfast
- 85 g mixed dried fruit
- 200 g flour (self raising)
- 25 g sugar
- 220 ml water
- pinch salt
- ½ tsp mixed spice
Combine ingredients in a mixing bowl, stirring well.
Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry dessertspoon sized dollops of the batter, until golden brown on both sides. When little bubbles gradually start appearing in the top surface is a good indication of when to turn them.
Makes 3 pancakes per person.
Make this breakfast twice in the week if following our Christmas planner.
Take care of your family and your budget
Before putting together our meal planners we surveyed over 600 people to ask when faced with a tighter budget, which things they would struggle to give up.
