Breakfast Pancakes with Crispy Bacon (How To Make).

Popular in many breakfast traditions, it’s a dish that has become synonymous with leisurely mornings and hearty starts to the day.

The pancakes provide a light and airy base, with a subtle sweetness that complements a variety of toppings.

Cooked until golden and slightly crisp on the edges, they offer a soft, pillowy texture that contrasts beautifully with the crispiness of freshly cooked bacon.

The bacon, with its smoky aroma and savuory depth, adds a bold flavour that cuts through the sweetness of the pancakes, making each bite well-balanced and full of character.

Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs
  • 5 – 7 tbsp milk
  • 150g/5oz self-raising flour
  • 2 tbsp Tate & Lyle® Caster Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • vegetable oil, for shallow frying
  • 150g pack sliced pancetta
  • 4 tbsp Lyle’s Golden Syrup®
  • coarsely ground black pepper

What truly steps up this dish is the way the elements come together on the plate. A drizzle of Lyle’s Golden Syrup® over the stack ties everything together, enhancing both the sweetness of the pancakes and the saltiness of the bacon.

  1. Firstly, whisk together the eggs and milk. Place the flour, sugar and salt in large bowl, make a well in the centre, pour in the liquid and mix beat with wooden spoon to make a smooth, thick batter. Set aside for 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a non-stick frying pan until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper.
  3. Heat a little oil in a separate frying pan. Carefully drop large spoonfuls of the pancake mixture into the hot frying pan and cook for 2 minutes until crisp and golden.
  4. Slide the pancakes onto serving plates and top with the bacon. Drizzle over the golden syrup, sprinkle with pepper and serve.
  5. Enjoy.

TIP:

  • Pancetta is a smoked, streaky Italian bacon usually available sliced wafer-thin or roughly diced. If you can’t get hold of it, use regular smoked streaky bacon.
