Drizzle On The Syrup

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. If you're one of those workaholics, it'll last you through lunch and dinner, and all the way till about 8pm (I know people who are this crazy). I know what a drag Mondays can be, for I have not found anyone who is a fan of this fateful day of the week. But cheer up, treat yourself to a nice breakfast, so at least the morning ain't gonna start so sucky, yah?
I'd like to share the recipe below, coz I think it's a great pick-me-up to a long week.
And if all fails, just add lots and lots of maple syrup, it's gauranteed to keep you grinning for at least till the end of the day!

Pancakes

you'd need:
3 large eggs
115g plain flour
1tsp baking powder
140ml buttermilk (or plain milk, but I find buttermilk has more flavour)
2tbsp sugar
a pinch of salt

how to:
- Separate the eggs, putting the whites in one bowl and the yolks in another.
- Add a pinch of salt to the whites and whisk till they form stiff peaks.
- In the other bowl, add the sugar, baking powder, buttermilk and flour and mix till it forms a smooth batter.
- Fold in the beaten whites into the batter till smooth.
- Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat, and pour the batter into the pan.
- Fry till the bottom of the pancake becomes golden brown and flip.
- Wait for the other side to turn golden brown and remove from heat.
- Serve warm with maple syrup.

* Serves 2 - 4
- you can add chopped bananas or pecans to the mix, or serve with your favourite berries. Experiment, and have fun!

C'mon, with a start like this, what could possibly go wrong?
Cheers~!
