Pomegranate Pancakes Recipes

POMEGRANATE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine with oatmeal, flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
• In a small jug, beat the eggs, milk and honey together.
• Make a well in the centre of the flour and pour in the egg mixture, beating as you go, until well combined and bubbles form. Set aside for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Peel the pomegranate and remove the seeds.
• Beat the batter once more, then add the pomegranate seeds.
• Coat a small omelette pan with olive oil, wipping off any excess. Pour a quatre of the batter and cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake - it takes between 3 and 5 minutes. Turn over and cook on the other side until golden. Serve with low-fat natural yoghurt and honey. Serves 4.
