Ingredients

Scale

Pancakes

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 100g plain flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 80ml milk
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil

Toppings

  • 5 tbsp dulce de leche
  • 2 bananas, sliced
  • 1 digestive biscuit, crumbled
  • grated chocolate, to serve

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: Separate the eggs. Place the egg whites in one bowl and 2 of the yolks in a separate bowl, reserving the third yolk for another use. Mix the egg yolks with caster sugar, plain flour, baking powder, and milk until smooth to form the pancake batter.
  2. Whip egg whites: Using an electric whisk or by hand, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they are fluffy and hold their shape. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk mixture carefully to preserve the airiness of the batter.
  3. Cook pancakes: Heat the butter and sunflower oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Pour a quarter of the batter (or half for larger pancakes) into the pan and cook each side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat for the remaining batter to make 4 smaller or 2 larger pancakes. Keep pancakes covered to stay warm.
  4. Warm dulce de leche: Gently warm the dulce de leche in a small saucepan until it loosens and is easier to spread.
  5. Assemble and serve: Place the pancakes on plates, then top with sliced bananas, warmed dulce de leche, crumbled digestive biscuit, and a sprinkle of grated chocolate. Serve immediately for a deliciously indulgent treat.

Notes

  • Use fresh bananas for the best flavor and texture.
  • Be gentle when folding egg whites to keep the pancakes light and fluffy.
  • Keep cooked pancakes covered to retain warmth while preparing the rest.
  • If dulce de leche is too thick, warming it slightly makes it easier to drizzle over pancakes.
  • Grated chocolate can be dark, milk, or white depending on your preference.
  • You can double the recipe easily for larger groups.
