These little pancakes are the perfect thing for a brunch with friends. You can prep the batter in advance, and it only takes a few minutes, then make a huge batch, which cook really quickly because they are so little. Then let your guests do the rest just provide them with some sliced parma ham, smoked salmon and a bowl of hot spicey mushrooms, depending on what they feel like they can assemble them themselves.

Ingredients
– 200gms cake flour
– large pinch salt
– 2 level tsp baking powder
– 2 large free range eggs

To make the batter, sieve the flour, salt and baking powder together. Whisk the eggs and milk together. Make a well in the centre and add the egg and milk mixture. Whisk together thoroughly – allow to stand for at least 10-minutes. Heat some butter in a heavy frying pan and add the mixture 1-tbsp at a time, once bubbles begin to appear, turn the pancake over and cook for a further minute until done.
