Ingredients

Pancakes

  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted, plus a little extra for cooking
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Berry Topping

  • 2 cups mixed berries fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions

For the Berry Topping

  • In a medium sized saucepan over medium heat combine the berries and the sugar. Give a good stir and let it cook down for about 10 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

For the Pancakes

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Sift together and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until light and fluffy. Whisk the eggs and melted butter into the milk,
  • Pour the milk mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir the batter to combine it but don't over mix. It's okay if there are still a few small lumps. Set batter aside and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt a little bit of butter. Start cooking pancakes in batches. Once they start to bubble, you can turn them over and cook for a further few minutes. Pancakes should be a light golden brown in colour and fluffy on the inside. Cover with foil while cooking the remaining pancakes. Repeat process until they are all cooked. Best served immediately, but can be stacked and stored in a warm oven until ready to eat.
