Ingredients

For Crepes:
3/4 cup plain flour
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup milk
For Pancakes:
1 cup self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon caster sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
2 tablespoon melted butter, cooled
1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Preparation

For Crepe:
Break the eggs into the flour, taking care not to include bits of shell.
Add a splash of milk and beat with a wooden spoon until the liquid is incorporated into the flour. Beat out any lumps at this stage before whisking in the rest of the milk.
Change to a wire whisk, and gradually beat in the milk until you have a smooth batter that is not as runny as milk but not as thick as single cream. Use more or less milk as required.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a high heat and wipe with kitchen paper dipped in oil.
When smoking hot pour in a little of the batter. For a 10-inch frying pan, about 3/4 of a standard sized ladle is the perfect amount.
Twirl the pan so that the batter covers the base; don’t worry about any holes.
After 30 to 60 seconds, slide a spatula under the edge and if the base is brown flip it over quickly.
Cook for a further 30 to 60 seconds, until the underside is spotted brown.
Slide onto a plate and eat immediately.
For Pancake:
Mix the dry ingredients together.
Beat together the milk, egg and vanilla essence. Add the cooled butter.
Beat the egg mixture into the dry mixture to form a smooth batter that will drop off a spoon but is not so runny that it flows too far.
Heat a non-stick frying over a medium heat and wipe with greased kitchen paper to keep it oiled.
Drop spoonful’s of the batter into the pan, without overcrowding, and cook on one side until browned.
Ease a spatula underneath and flip to cook the other side. Once golden on each side, the center should be cooked. Practice will help you to judge.
Slide the pancakes onto a plate and eat immediately.
