Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

500ml (2 cups) buttermilk
55g (¼ cup) butter
275g (2¼ cups) flour
75g (⅓ cup) sugar
5ml (1 tsp) baking soda
2.5ml (½ tsp) salt
15ml (1 tbsp) vinegar
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Gently warm the buttermilk in a saucepan.
  • Stir in the butter and stir over a low heat until melted.
  • Place the flour in a bowl.
  • Gradually pour the milk and butter into the flour and beat well.
  • Leave the mixture to stand for at least 30 minutes; a few hours would be even better.
  • Beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
  • Add the sugar, baking soda, salt and vinegar to the eggs and mix.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the flour one and beat until a smooth batter is formed.
  • Grease a frying pan and heat until hot but not smoking.

The Welsh are famed for their love of pancakes and they are not just for Pancake Day. Welsh pancakes, known as crempog in North Wales, are always lavished in salty butter and stacked in a pile to cut like a cake.
