Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-raising flour
  • 0.75 cup caster sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 3.4 fl oz orange juice Freshly Squeezed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 5 fl oz milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter Salted Also Ok
  • 0.5 lb strawberries

Instructions

  • Zest 1 Orange - make sure you only get the orange part of the skin - not the white - the white is bitter
  • Wash the strawberries Then top them and cut them into 1/4 inch slices
  • Pan brush it with room temperature butter covering the bottom of the pan. Add 1 tbsp of raw sugar or demerara sugar - sprinkled evenly over the pan
  • Layer the sliced strawberries on the bottom of the pan neatly because when we turn it over it's going to be the top
  • Next put in a mixing bowl the self-raising flour, salt, and caster sugar.  Mix it up with a whisk gently before you start to put in the wet ingredients - and add The Orange zest.
  • Eggs - Whisk up one egg with a fork. Take the other egg and separate the egg white from the yolk. Put the yellow yolk into your egg mix and whisk again
  • Now it's time to add your wet ingredients to the dry - start by putting in the eggs that you have whisked also and the milk, vanilla extract (use good quality - not essence) and the orange juice keep back about 10% of the orange juice so you can adjust the consistency of the mix.
    The mix should run easily off the whisk is the consistency that you're looking TO check out our video at position 2.10  we show it.
  • Take your pan with the strawberries on the bottom and put it on low to medium heat, wait until the butter melts and then pour the pancake batter mix all over. Get it so that it is evenly spread and flat.
    Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes on low heat until you see bubbles coming onto the top of the pancake mix.
  • Then cover the pan with a top so that the steam is trapped inside and cook for a further 1 minute.
  • The next step is to take your pan and put it in an oven at 300F or 150 C and bake for 15 minutes. Then with a skewer check, the middle of the pancake is dry when you pull out the skewer.  If the skewer is dry you're ready if it's still a little bit wet put it back in the oven for another 5 minutes
  • Finally to brown the bottom of the pancake.  Turn on your broil or grill and place the pancake underneath, watch very carefully so that the pancake bottom doesn't burn. This only takes 1 to 2 minutes and you'll get a nice brown bottom of pancake.
  • Take out and let the pancake cool for about 3 to 4 minutes while you use a spatula to just release the edges of a pancake from the pan.
    To turn the pancake, put on a plate to pancake in the pan and invert it and the pancake should come out showing you the beautiful strawberries.

Notes

Now you're ready to eat and a little bit of maple syrup if you like and enjoy.
