PANCAKE … sprinkled with magic 

This is a revamp of my childhood favourite dish – pancakes !!! This is such a delicious and low in sugar : desert/snack/lunch. You can make it in so many different combinations, the only thing which will stop you is your imagination. This one is called : Pancake Sprinkled with Magic because my daughter thinks that I do magic to make it in her favourite colour – purple. 
PANCAKE: 

Ingredients

– 100g plain flour

– 2 eggs

– 300ml semi-skimmed milk

– Coconut oil for frying

Put the flour into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and crack the eggs into the middle. Pour in about 50ml milk and start whisking from the centre, gradually drawing the flour into the eggs and milk. Once all the flour is incorporated, beat until you have a smooth, thick paste. Add a little more milk at the time.

Heat the pan over a medium heat, add the butter and fry for 30s on each side.

PURPLE FEELING:

– 100g ricotta cheese (or any soft white cheese)

– 2 handfuls of blueberries (need to make sure that they are sweet)

Heat the blueberries in the pan for 3-5 minutes (until releasing the juices). Cool down the blueberries, then blend. Mix with the Ricotta cheese. 

Depending on how much filling you want in your pancakes you might need to double the ingredients.
