Ingredients

300 g (11oz) self-raising flour
1 tsp. baking powder
25 g (1oz) caster sugar
2 large eggs
75 g (3oz) natural yogurt
300 ml (1/2 pint) semi-skimmed milk
40 g (1 1/2oz) butter
12 rashers unsmoked streaky bacon
75 g (3oz) golden syrup
25 g (1oz) maple syrup

Directions

1. Step 1
  Preheat oven to 110°C (90°C fan) mark ¼ (to use for warming). Sift flour, baking powder and sugar into a large bowl and stir to combine. In a large jug, whisk eggs, yogurt and milk together until smooth. Using a whisk, gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ones until just combined (the mixture may be a little lumpy, but don't worry).
2. Step 2
  Heat a knob of the butter in a large frying pan until foaming, then drop large serving spoonfuls of batter into the pan, spacing apart (cook in batches). Cook the pancakes for 2-3min until the underside is golden and the tops look dry and bubbly, then flip and cook for a further 2-3min until golden. Put cooked pancakes on a baking tray, cover with foil and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining batter.
3. Step 3
  Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a large, non-stick frying pan until crisp and golden.
4. Step 4
  In a small jug or serving bowl, stir together the maple and golden syrups. Serve warm pancakes stacked with the bacon, drizzled with syrup.
