Dutch people say: Pannekoeken met spek en stroop. The picture on the right shows the smaller Dutch version: poffertjes, a kind of tiny pancake served with butter and sugar.
The Americans call them: Pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Both young and old loves them through the ages.

Pancakes with bacon and maple syrup.
Serves 4, preparation time 20 minutes
Ingredients
• 125g plain flour
• 1.5tsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 1tsp caster sugar
• 1 large egg
• 175ml skim milk
• 2tsp sunflower oil
• 8 strips of bacon
• 25g butter
• 8tbsp maple syrup

Method
1 Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Add the sugar. Make a hole, add the egg and milk and whisk just enough to make a thick batter - don’t worry if it’s a little lumpy.
2 Lightly grease the base of a large non-stick frying pan with the oil and wipe away any excess with paper towel. Heat the pan until really hot and spoon in 2 tablespoons of butter. Pour in a ladle full of batter. Leave until bubbles form on the surface, then flip over with a spatula and fry until the other side is brown. Make the pancakes in batches, a few at a time, keeping them warm as you go.
3 Meanwhile, grill the bacon. Serve it with the warm pancakes, topped with a dollop of butter and maple syrup.
