In a large bowl add flour, baking powder, bicarbonate, spice mix, salt and sugar (if using) and mix thoroughly.
Add in the eggs and the milk and whisk well. You will be left with a thick batter. It does not matter if there are a few lumps in the batter.
Heat a non stick frying pan over medium heat.
Melt the tiniest knob of butter in frying pan and add in a ladle of batter.
Cook the pancake for a couple of minute and when the top starts bubbling then turn over and cook the other side till its is golden.
Serve with maple syrup, fruits or any other toppings that you prefer.
Makes 8-10 pancakes.
Notes
To keep cooked pancakes warm whilst making more store them in an oven on low heat. Please experiment with the amount of spice mix that you add to the pancakes to suit your taste.
