  • 1 tsp Nutella Use a little more if desired.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Gather your ingredients and measure everything out, ensuring eggs are at room temperature.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together self-raising flour, caster sugar, and baking powder.
  • In another bowl, crack the eggs and whisk gently. Add melted butter and milk, then whisk until smooth.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until mostly incorporated; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
  • Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes.

Cooking

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, testing with water droplets.
  • For each pancake, pour batter into the pan; cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 1½–2 minutes).
  • Flip and cook for another 45 seconds to 1 minute until golden.
  • Keep pancakes warm in a low oven while cooking the rest.

Assembly

  • Spread Nutella on one pancake, top with another pancake to create a sandwich.
  • Serve immediately, dusting with powdered sugar and adding fresh fruit if desired.

Notes

If the first pancake doesn't cook as desired, adjust the heat. Use an ice cream scoop for consistent sizes.
