Pancakes with berries

by Jo

makes 6-8 pancakes

This is a naughty but nice breakfast treat. If you don’t want to add the berries they taste great simply with maple syrup drizzled over them.

Pancakes
1 cup self raising flour
Pinch salt
2 tablespoons vegan margarine, melted and cooled
2 tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar
1 cup soy milk (or other non-dairy milk)
1 teaspoon egg replacer
1 tablespoon water

Berry mix
1 cup mixed frozen berries
1 tablespoon agave nectar or sugar

Put the berries in a small pan, add the sugar or agave syrup and place over a low heat. Cook gently until berries are soft.

Mix together flour and salt. Combine the egg replacer and water then add the margarine, maple syrup and soy milk and mix thoroughly. Add the wet mixture to the flour and whisk until smooth.

Heat a frying pan over a medium to high heat. Brush pan with a little oil and then pour in about ⅓ to ½ cup of the pancake mixture. Each pancake should be about 4-5 inches across. Spread into a round shape with the back of a spoon if necessary.

Cook pancake on one side then gently loosen with a spatula and flip over. The pancakes should take about 1-2 minutes on each side and be golden brown when cooked. Keep pancakes warm between kitchen paper when cooked.

Pile pancakes on a plate and spoon over the warm berries. Drizzle over extra maple syrup if required.
