Matcha Pancake Recipe
Instructions
  1. Crack the eggs in to bowl and whisk
  2. Add the milk and continue to whisk
  3. Sift the flour baking powder and matcha together in a large bowl
  4. Combine your wet and dry ingredients
  5. Use a balloon whisk to beat the mixture together until it forms a smooth, lump free batter
  6. Heat a non-stick frying pan and add a few drops of oil or spray equivalent. When it is hot, drop two or three large spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan, leaving space between the pancakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the base is golden, then flip the pancakes over and cook on the other side
  7. Transfer the pancakes to the warm plate, and keep in the oven whilst you cook the remaining pancakes in the same way - the mixture makes about 12 in total
  8. Divide the pancakes between four plates, heaping them up, scatter with the fruit and serve with a drizzle of maple syrup

  1. Heat the cream, whole milk, sugar and Banana Shake pyramids (with the paper tags removed) in a saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally until all the sugar has dissolved, then reduce the heat and simmer until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half. Carefully squeeze the pyramid bag against the side of the pan to help release the flavour.
  3. Take the pan off the heat and remove the Banana Shake pyramid, giving them a final squeeze.
  4. Drain the gelatine leaves, add to the pan and stir until dissolved.
  5. Pour into four ramekins or mini pudding bowls (these, from John Lewis, work perfectly). Set aside in the fridge for at least two hours until set.
  6. To serve, dip the panna cotta into a bowl of hot water briefly or slide a flexible knife around the outside edge carefully. Turn the panna cotta out onto a plate. Serve with shards of dark chocolate for an extra treat

  1. Brew the teabags in 50ml of boiling water for at least five minutes. The longer you leave it, the stronger the flavour.
  2. Crush the ginger biscuits and distribute evenly across the bottom of 4 glass jars. (We've used little Kilner Jars as we had them to hand, but you don't have to!)
  3. Whip the cream, then add the vanilla essence, tea (remove the bags first!), and the lime zest and juice and mix thoroughly.
  4. Spoon the mixture on top of the crushed biscuits, and leave to set in the fridge for an hour or so.
  5. To serve, add a pretty curl of lime zest, or a dusting of crushed ginger biscuit.
