Ingredients
120g plain flour
a good pinch of salt
1 tbsp golden caster sugar
2 large eggs, separated
20g unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for frying
200ml full-fat milk
Clarks Pure Maple Syrup, to serve

Method
1. Sift the flour, salt and sugar into a bowl, then make a well in the centre.
2. Add the egg yolks, butter and milk and beat with a whisk until mixed. Gradually
work in the flour to make a very thick but lump-free batter.
3. In another bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold them into the batter
with a large metal spoon. Heat a heavy-based frying pan until medium hot,
then grease it lightly with butter.
4. Fry the mixture in batches of 3, using a heaped tablespoon of batter for each
pancake. Cook for about 1 minute until golden underneath, then turn over with
a spatula and cook for another minute.
5. Serve hot with Clarks Maple Syrup.
