Cooking Steps

1
1

• Roughly chop roasted almonds and pecans. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast chopped nuts until golden, 1-2 minutes. Add the brown sugar, the water and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until bubbling and the caramel has thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Transfer to a sheet of baking paper and spread out to cool.

• Place light cooking cream in a large bowl or jug and whisk with electric beaters or a metal whisk until soft peaks form and almost doubled in size, 2-3 minutes. • Gently stir through vanilla-flavoured syrup. Set aside.

TIP: For the perfect soft peaks, whip until the cream just clings to the whisk or beater when lifted.

• Wipe out frying pan, add the butter and melt over a low heat. • In a large bowl, add melted butter, the eggs, Greek-style yoghurt and the milk. Lightly whisk to combine. Add dry pancake mix and whisk until just combined.

TIP: Don't worry if the batter is thick, it makes for fluffy pancakes!

• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook pancakes in batches until golden and set, 3-5 minutes each side (use 1/3 cup batter per pancake).

TIP: Use some butter for frying if preferred. TIP: If you’re doing more than two batches, repeat wiping out the pan and adding more butter or oil!

• Place dark chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a medium heatproof bowl. Microwave in 20 second bursts, stirring each time, until the chocolate is melted.

TIP: Melting chocolate in 20 second bursts stops the chocolate from burning.

• Stack pancakes between plates and drizzle over dark chocolate. Sprinkle with candied nuts. • Serve with vanilla cream. Enjoy!
