Damian’s perfect pancakes with salted maple vanilla butter, pecans, pistachios and apples

Our favourite day of February is almost upon us, and Damian is here to help us pull out all the stops with his perfect pancake recipe. 

Forget lemon and sugar – his salted maple vanilla butter with pecans, pistachios, and apples is a deliciously decadent way to add a little sweetness to your pancakes this Shrove Tuesday.  

Pancakes with salted maple vanilla butter, pecans, pistachios, and apples

 

Serves 4 

For the pancakes

  • 300g self-raising flour
  • 6g baking powder
  • 180g milk
  • 15g melted butter warm
  • 60g natural yoghurt
  • 10g unrefined caster sugar
  • A pinch of salt

 

For the salted maple vanilla butter

  • 100g diced red apple
  • 75g maple syrup
  • 25g butter diced
  • 3g sea salt
  • 1/2 vanilla pod (deseeded)

 

To serve

  • 15g roasted pecans
  • 5g toasted pistachios
  • 50g whipped cream

 

  1. Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl. In a separate bowl or jug, combine the wet ingredients.
  2. Combine both mixtures, taking care not to overwork, before setting aside for half an hour to rest.
  3. Warm a non-stick frying pan and add a knob of butter. Once hot, cook the pancakes in small batches until they are light, golden brown and fluffy.
  4. Wipe the pan free of the cooking butter, and put the pancakes in the oven to keep warm before moving onto the sauce.
  5. Sauté the apples in the pancake pan until they have coloured slightly and softened.
  6. Add the maple syrup and take off the heat. The heat in the pan will reduce the maple syrup slightly.
  7. Add the diced butter and whisk until emulsified. Finish by adding the salt and vanilla seeds.
  8. Place the pancakes on a warm plate. Scatter the apples, pecans, and pistachios around, and spoon over the maple butter. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
