Ingredients

2 cup (300g) self-raising flour

2 tablespoon caster sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup (250ml) buttermilk

3/4 cup (185ml) low-fat milk

60 gram butter, melted

1 egg, lightly beaten

cooking oil spray

500 gram strawberries, hulled, sliced, plus extra to serve (optional)

vanilla ice-cream, to serve

Method

1.Sift flour with sugar and baking powder into a bowl. Combine milks, melted butter and egg in a jug. Stir milk mixture into flour until just combined (don’t over-mix batter, as pancakes will be flat and tough – lumpy is fine).

2.Lightly spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and heat on medium. Spoon about 1/4-cup measures of batter into pan, allowing for spreading. Press strawberry slices into each pancake and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until bubbles appear. Turn and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden. Transfer to a warm plate.

3.Wipe pan with paper towel and spray with oil. Repeat with remaining batter and strawberry. Serve with extra strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice-cream, if you like.
