Step-by-step
- Warm the jam and lemon juice in a saucepan, stirring until the jam has melted. Add the berries and warm together then take off the heat.
- To make the pancakes, sift the flour and sugar into a bowl then make a well. Whisk together the eggs and milk then beat into the flour until smooth.
- Heat a large non-stick frying pan, brush with a little butter or oil then add spoonfuls of the pancake batter, a little spaced apart and cook over a medium heat for a few minutes until bubbles appear on the surface and the undersides are golden. Turn them over and cook for a few more minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Remove the pancakes and keep hot in a folded teacloth. Brush the pan with a little more butter or oil and continue cooking in batches of pancakes until all the mixture is used up.
- Divide the pancakes between four serving plates, spoon over the warm berries and drizzle with crème Anglaise, or serve with spoonfuls of natural yogurt.
