How to make Pancakes

Not everybody likes pancakes with butter and maple syrup for breakfast, neither do I! But I bet you will love them with fruits and whipped cream!

To make these super fluffy pancakes you will need some preparation time, so maybe it's not an everyday breakfast. Anyway, they are still easy to make and it totally worth it!

What you need to garnish your Pancakes:

• fruits of your choice (fresh kiwis & strawberries)
• whipped cream
• chocolate sauce

Pre-Preparation:

1. In a large bowl beat the whipped cream until it forms soft peaks. Fill cream into a piping bag and store in the fridge until serving time.

2. Wash the strawberries, remove the leaves and cut the fruits into slices. Put them on one half of a small plate.

3. Peel the kiwi (watch here), cut it into small square pieces and put them on the other side of the plate with the strawberries. Wrap the plate with plastic wrap and store in the fridge.

After you have done all the pre-preparation you can get to your pancakes now. This is what you need:

Pour a small amount of batter onto the pan and cook until bubbles appear, then it is lightly browned on the bottom. Turn over and brown the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
