Serves: 2
Ingredients
Ingredients for the pancakes
- 3 tbsp of flour
- ¼ tsp of baking powder
- ¼ tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp of milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp of caster sugar
Ingredients for the berry compote
- 2 tbsp of OSU Blueberry
- 100g of frozen berries
- 3 tbsp of caster sugar
- 100ml of water
Pancake Method
- Mix together the egg yolks, sugar, milk, and pancake mix in a very large bowl until it is smooth with no large lumps.
- In another large bowl, beat the egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form when lifted.
- Carefully fold the egg whites into the pancake batter, until just incorporated, making sure not to deflate the batter.
- Grease two 3.5-inch (9 cm) metal ring moulds and set them in the middle of a pan over the lowest heat possible.
- Fill the moulds about ¾ of the way full with the batter, then cover the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, until the centre of the pancakes are slightly jiggly.
- Release the pancakes from the bottom of the pan with a spatula, then carefully flip them over, making sure not to spill any batter inside.
Berry compote method
- In a medium saucepan, add the berries and OSU and heat over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat slightly and heat for 2-3 more minutes. Occasionally press the berries, so they release more of their juices (though there’s no need to mash them fully).
- Add the sugar towards the end of the cooking time and stir well.
- Remove from the heat and either serve the fruit compote immediately or allow to cool and use later.
