This recipe makes \u00b1 12 pancakes<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n

240g plain flour (not self-raising flour, which will make the pancakes too thick)
\nPinch of salt
\n4 eggs
\n410 ml milk
\n180ml water
\n2 tbsp sunflower oil
\n1-2 tsp margarine
\n1 box chocolate chips
\nWhipped cream (optional)<\/p>\n

  1. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl.<\/li>\n
  2. Make a well in the centre of the flour and crack in your eggs.<\/li>\n

  4. In a jug, mix your water and milk together.<\/li>\n
  5. Gradually pour the water and milk mixture to the flour, salt and egg mixture. Whisk as you go along. You are aiming for a pouring cream-like consistency.<\/li>\n

  8. Using a ladle, ladle your mixture into the pan, swirling the pan as you go to coat the base evenly.<\/li>\n
