December 2025

If you love pancakes, you know there's nothing quite like a stack of fluffy, golden ones. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or a special brunch, these pancakes are incredibly easy to make and delightfully satisfying. With a light and airy texture, they offer the perfect canvas for your favorite toppings.

In this recipe, we combine milk and buttermilk to create a rich, tender crumb, with a touch of melted butter for extra flavor. To add an autumnal twist, consider incorporating pumpkin spice into the mix for a seasonal touch.

To elevate your pancake experience, serve these fluffy delights with a drizzle of MGO 400 mānuka honey and a scattering of fresh berries. The sweet, floral notes of our mānuka honey MGO 400 paired with the juicy freshness of berries create a harmonious blend that’s both delicious and nutritious.

Makes approximately 15 pancakes

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
½ cup caster sugar
1 egg
1 ¼ cups milk
¾ cup buttermilk
75g melted butter, cooled (plus extra for cooking)

TO ASSEMBLE:

Mānuka honey MGO 400
Fresh berries

INSTRUCTIONS:

Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and caster sugar.
Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, buttermilk, and melted butter until well combined.
Make the Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just smooth. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Cook the Pancakes: Heat a small amount of butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Pour approximately 1/3 cup of batter into the hot pan for each pancake. Cook until bubbles start to appear on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional minute, or until golden brown.
