Niki’s American Pancakes

Method
Put the flour into a large bowl, add baking powder and salt, mix together.
Make a well in the centre and gradually add the beaten egg, melted butter and milk whisking all the time until a smooth batter is reached.
Heat a smooth griddle or non-stick frying pan on the hob, medium heat, spray with fry light or oil
Once the pan is hot, this will take about 1-2 minutes, place 1 tablespoon of mixture into the hot pan, you should get 3 - 4 in the pan at the same time as long as they are not touching or if you prefer do them one at a time.
When the upper side of the pancake is blistering and bubbling it's time to flip them over to cook the other side, this only needs about 1 minute, if that. (you could add fruit before turning).
Keep warm until you have cooked all the mixture then add fresh fruit and honey or whatever you like and enjoy!
