Pancakes October 18, 2008

Today I did not use the ready mix for the pancakes. I read from one of the blogger that she uses the following ingredients for the pancakes. I don’t even have a chance to taste it as my boys finish it before I can take a photo of it.

 

Ingredients :

2 eggs

2 tbsp honey (I use only 1-1/2 tbsp)

2 tbsp sugar (I use only 1-1/2 tbsp)

100g plain flour

1 tsp baking powder

80ml fresh milk

Method :

1. Combine eggs, sugar & honey in the bowl.
2. Sieve flour and baking powder into the bowl and mix them well.
3. Gradually add in milk and mix well.
4. Leave the batter at room temperature for about 30 mins before using it.
5. Grease a frying pan or a griddle and warm to middle heating range.
6. When the edge of the pancake becomes dry and rough with bubbles, turn it and cook until the other side browns evenly.

Butter Loaf October 18, 2008

I try another recipe for the bread using my Bluesky breadmaker. My colleague finds it from here.

Ingredients :

250g bread flour

1-1/2 teaspoon instant yeast

3 tablespoon sugar (I use 2 tablespoon)

1 teaspoon salt

2 eggs (medium)

50g butter (soften at room temperature)

50ml milk

Method :

1. Assemble the pan and kneader blade. Add in milk, lightly beaten eggs and butter, followed by sugar and salt. Spoon in the flour and make a slight indentation in the centre of the flour. Add the yeast in the indentation.
2. Shut the lid and set to the “Sweet” function, select loaf size as 1lb and set as Light crust.
3. At the end of the programme, lift the pan out of the machine and turn out onto a cooling rack. Leave to cool before slicing.
