Buttermilk pancakes with maple bacon

Buttermilk pancakes

Thick, fluffy buttermilk pancakes served the American way with glazed bacon and maple syrup. This easy pancake recipe will save your brunch.

Ingredients
350g/12oz self-raising flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ tsp salt
2 tbsp caster sugar
200ml/7fl oz buttermilk
400ml/14fl oz semi-skimmed milk
2 free-range eggs
85g/3oz unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for frying
12 rashers smoked streaky bacon
50ml/2fl oz maple syrup
Method
In a bowl, sift together the flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and sugar.

In a separate bowl or jug, mix together the buttermilk, milk, eggs and butter. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Do not overbeat – stir just to combine.

Melt a small knob of butter in a large frying pan. Using a ladle, pour some batter into the pan to make a pancake. Depending on the size of the pan, you may be able to make more than one pancake at a time, or if you are confident you can use two pans at the same time.

Cook the pancakes for about a minute, or until the underside is golden brown and the top is bubbling. Turn them over using a palette knife or fish slice and cook for another minute. Keep the pancakes warm in a very low oven while you cook the remaining batter.

Meanwhile, preheat the grill to medium–hot. Lay the bacon on a grill tray lined with foil and brush with some of the maple syrup. Grill until one side of the bacon is crisp. Turn over and brush the other side with maple syrup and cook until crisp.

Serve the pancakes stacked on top of each other, topped with grilled bacon and drizzled with maple syrup.
