Soft, fluffy and perfectly portioned, lunch box pancakes are made for busy days and easy packing. These smaller pancakes hold their texture well, making them ideal for preparing ahead and popping straight into lunch boxes without going soggy.
Great for school lunches, snacks or on-the-go mornings, they can be enjoyed plain or paired with fruit, yoghurt or spreads. Packed with protein, they help keep kids fuller for longer and provide steady energy throughout the day, making them a more satisfying option than many sweet snacks.
Make a batch in advance and store for the week so they’re always ready when you need them — a simple, practical way to enjoy pancakes anytime while keeping lunch prep easy.
Pre-heat a lightly greased non-stick frying pan to medium heat.
In a mixing bowl stir all ingredients with a whisk until the batter is combined with no lumps.
Spoon the batter into the frying pan to form 6 small pancakes.
Cook on low-medium heat for 90 seconds until bubbles form on top or until golden brown on one side. Flip and continue to cook for 90 seconds or until golden brown.
Serve with berries and chocolate chips.
