Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC fan 180ºC/ gas mark 6

  2. Lay slices of bacon in a frying pan and place over a gentle heat until cooked

  3. Meanwhile, sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl

  4. Whisk the milk and egg together in a jug until smooth

  5. Make a well in the middle of the flour, then gradually beat in the egg and milk mixture, drawing in the flour from the edges to make a batter the consistency of single cream

  6. Leave the pancake mix to stand while the bacon cooks

  7. When the bacon’s nearly ready, heat a non-stick frying pan and brush with a little of the oil

  8. Place 1 tbsp batter into the pan, swirl into a 7cm circle, then repeat, leaving at least 3cm between each pancake

  9. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the tops start to bubble, then turn over and cook for a further 1-2 minutes

  10. Set aside and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter until all the mixture is used up
