The method

1

Place your flour, milk, egg and cinnamon into a larger bowl, whisk everything together until nice and smooth.

2

Roughly bash the walnuts in a clean tea towel with a rolling pin and add both to the bowl. Coarsely grate the carrot and mix well.

3

Put a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Once hot, add a small drizzle of olive oil, then, once the oil starts to sizzle, add 4 large spoonfuls of batter to the pan – you may need to do this in batches! Wait for little bubbles to form on the surface of the pancakes (about 1 to 2 minutes), then flip them over to cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on the other side, or until golden again. Transfer to a plate and keep warm in a low oven. Carefully wipe out the pan with a ball of kitchen paper, then add another drizzle of oil and cook the next batch.

4

Serve the pancakes with a generous dollop of yoghurt, an extra dusting of cinnamon and a drizzle of honey. Enjoy!
