Ingredients

1 egg

1 cup self-raising flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 cup reduced fat milk

40g butter, melted

1 cup canned, diced peaches, pears or apricots or sliced, ripe banana - all well-drained on paper towel

Icing sugar, for dusting

Sift flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre.
Whisk milk and egg in a jug then pour into the centre of flour mixture. Stir to
form a smooth batter. Fold 2 tsp melted butter through mixture.
Heat a medium non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat. Brush the base of the pan with melted butter. Spoon 1 1⁄2 tbs batter into the pan and spread to form a 10cm round pancake.
Sprinkle with chopped fruit or a few slices of banana. Cook for 3 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface. Turn and cook further 3-4 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
Repeat, reheating the pan and brushing with butter between batches.
Top extra fruit and vanilla yoghurt to serve if you like.
