Recipe Information

Step by step guide to making Buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup pears

  1. Heat the butter in a frying pan and add the pear quarters. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until golden. Stir in the pecans and maple syrup and allow to bubble for a minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  2. To make the pancakes: sieve the flour, baking powder and caster sugar into a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff.
  3. Combine the egg yolks with the buttermilk in a jug, then pour into the flour mixture. Whisk until smooth then carefully fold in the stiff egg whites.
  4. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large frying pan and drop in spoonfuls of batter, so each pancake is about 6cm in diameter. Cook for 2 minutes each side until cooked through. Remove and keep warm. Repeat to make 12 pancakes.
  5. Serve 3 pancakes per person and spoon over the syrupy pears and pecans.
