Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until combined and smooth, taking care not to overmix.

Step 5

Lightly grease a large frying pan with a little vegetable oil and place over medium heat.

Step 6

Add a tablespoon of batter for each pancake and cook for about 3 minutes, or until small bubbles appear on top.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes and cook for another minute until golden brown.
