-
Lightly grease a frying pan and 4 crumpet rings, place on a very low heat and allow to warm up while you make the mix.
-
Place the self raising flour in a bowl along with the baking powder and mix.
-
Stir in the caster sugar and create a well in the middle of the flour mix.
-
Crack the egg into the well and also pour in the oil, milk and vanilla extract. Using either a bell whisk or an electric whisk, whisk the mixture until smooth.
-
Pour the mix into each crumpet ring, no more than 3/4 fill the rings as they will rise a fair bit. Place a lid on top of the frying pan and fry for 8-9 minutes. You should get some air bubbles on top and the sides will appear dry.
-
Remove the lid and flip the pancakes over, fry for a further 1 minute.
-
Remove from the frying pan and take out of the crumpet rings.
-
Chop the strawberries into small pieces and scatter over the top of the pancakes then drizzle over maple syrup.
