Ingredients

Instructions
  1. Mix the ground flax seed with the water and leave for 5 minutes. If you are using an egg instead of the flaxseed, lightly beat it in a bowl.

  2. Add the milk to the flax egg mixture/normal egg and whisk lightly. Tip in the flour and whisk until fully incorporated.

  3. Heat a heavy-based pan, ideally with a lid. Heat half the oil, and spread around the pan so that it covers the base evenly.

  4. Spoon in heaped tablespoons of mixture to make individual pancakes. My large pan will fit in 5 or 6 at a time, but you may have to do more batches if your pan is smaller. Cover with a lid or foil, and leave for 3 minutes, until the tops of the pancakes are set and puffed up.

  5. Turn over and cook for a further minute on the other side. Serve with topping of your choice.
