A truly indulgent pancake recipe, this is something you’ll want to eat more often than just once a year. Ideal for breakfast or dessert, the strawberry, caramel and yoghurt topping is also delicious on toasted waffles or slices of Madeira cake.
Serves: 4 (2 pancakes each)
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10 Minutes
You’ll need:
For the pancakes:
100g flour
2 eggs, beaten
300ml milk
Oil for frying
For the filling:
20 Viva strawberries, chopped
2tsp sugar
1 tbsp caramel sauce
300ml Greek yoghurt
2 tbsp, heaped, toasted almonds
What to do:

- In a bowl, sprinkle the sugar over the strawberries and leave to soften while you make the pancakes. Switch your oven on to a low heat.
- Place the flour in a bowl and gently whisk in the milk and eggs so you have a lump free batter. It should be the consistency of singe cream.
- Heat a medium sized frying pan on a medium heat then wipe it with oil. Ladle enough batter into the pan to coat the base with an even, thin layer when you tilt it around the pan.
- Leave the batter to stand until the top side looks dry and the bottom is golden, usually around 30 seconds. Using a fish slice or a flick of the wrist, turn or flip the pancake to cook the other side. Once cooked pop it on a plate, cover with foil and keep it warm in the oven. Repeat this till all the batter is used up and you have a pile of pancakes.
- Gently fold the juicy strawberries and caramel through the yoghurt till it just ripples. Serve 2 pancakes per person topped with a dollop of the yoghurt mixture and scatter with almonds.
