Method

Sift flours into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre of the mixture.
In a jug, whisk together milk and eggs. Pour milk and eggs into flour mixture and whisk to make a smooth batter.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, or heat a flat-based sandwich press.
Drop tablespoonfuls of batter onto the pan or sandwich press and cook for 1 minute or until bubbles appear on surface. Turn and cook for a further minute or until golden and cooked through. Repeat until all the batter has been used.
Serve with your choice of fruit toppings.

Each serve provides

½ children’s serve of fruit*
