Scotch pancakes, also known as drop scones, are fluffy and delicious treats perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack. Made with simple ingredients, these pancakes can be easily customized with your favorite fruits or chocolate chips!
Ingredients
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour, baking powder, and sugar. This will ensure there are no lumps and the ingredients are well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with a bit of butter or oil if needed.
Using a ladle or large spoon, drop approximately 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Leave enough space between each pancake as they will spread slightly.
Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
Remove the pancakes from the pan and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter. Serve warm with your choice of toppings.
Conclusion
Tips:Feel free to add in chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped bananas to the batter for added flavor.Serve with maple syrup, honey, yogurt, or fresh fruit for a delicious finish.Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated in the toaster or microwave.
