“A basic Nigerian pancake is made using regular pancake batter with a bit of onion, pepper and sugar added. My mum used to make these a whole lot when we were quite young and it was always a hit, served with a hot or cold beverage.” – Dobby, Dobby’s Signature

Ingredients
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 10 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Scotch Bonnets or other hot pepper, finely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons margarine/butter or vegetable oil
Preparation
  1. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly and set aside.
  2. Sieve the flour in a separate medium-sized bowl. Pour in the milk to form a smooth batter.
  3. Gently fold in the whisked eggs, sugar, salt and milk to form a smooth, runny batter (the more milk/eggs you add, the thinner your pancakes will be). Add the chopped pepper and onions and mix to incorporate.
  4. Heat a non-stick frying pan and add a little butter/margarine or vegetable oil; spread evenly over the bottom of pan.
  5. Pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter into the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 1 minute and flip over for a further 30 seconds.
  6. Transfer to a plate and repeat the process until the batter is used up.
  7. Serve hot with any beverage.
Cook's Notes

"The Nigerian Pancake is a little denser and has more texture while the classic American Pancake is lighter and fluffier."
