RECIPE INFORMATION

PREP: 5 minutes
COOK TIME: 5 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 10 minutes

YIELD: 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

225g self-raising flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tbsp sugar

2 eggs

2 tbsp melted butter plus extra for frying

175ml milk

75g baby spinach leaves, chopped

bananas, kiwi, blueberries and maple syrup, to serve (optional)

PREPARATION

Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, butter, milk and spinach in a blender and whizz until smooth and bright green.

Melt a little butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and spoon in small dollops of batter (you can cook two or three pancakes at a time). Cook for 2 mins until the edges are set and bubbles rise to the surface, then flip and cook for 1-2 mins more. Keep warm in a low oven while you cook the remaining pancakes.

Decorate the pancakes with googly fruit eyes (slices of banana and kiwi with blueberry pupils work well) and pointy banana teeth to serve. Serve with maple syrup, if you like.
