- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, sift together the gluten-free self-raising flour, baking powder, caster sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl or jug, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients while stirring continuously to form a smooth batter without lumps.
Step 4
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with the vegetable oil using a piece of kitchen paper.
Step 5
Drop dessert spoon-sized amounts of batter onto the pan, leaving space between each pancake, as they will spread slightly.
Step 6
Cook the pancakes for approximately 2 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to set, then flip them over.
Step 7
Cook the other side for about 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the pancakes from the pan and keep them warm while repeating the process with the remaining batter.
Step 9
Serve the Scotch pancakes warm, with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
