Categories: pancakes, waffles & crepes breakfast valentine's day baking syrup Prep Time 10 minutes Cook Time 20 mins Ingredients FOR THE PANCAKES 3 small roasted beetroot, peeled and chopped (about 175g in total) 50ml milk 3 medium eggs, beaten golden-syrup 2 tbsp 200g self-raising flour 1 tsp Dr Oetker Baking Powder 2 tbsp. rapeseed oil for frying FOR SERVING 75g cream cheese 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 4 tbsp. Lyle’s Golden Syrup YOU WILL NEED 4 heart shaped heat-proof rings measuring around 9cm wide and 8cm long Red Velvet Heart Beet Pancakes Place the beetroot in a bowl along with the milk and blend with a hand blender/blender until perfectly smooth. Add the Lyle’s Golden Syrup and beaten eggs, whisking well. Sieve in flour and baking powder until smooth. Oil your heart shaped rings and add a little oil to a heated frying pan. Place the rings in the pan and spoon some of the mixture in. Nudge the batter around to fill in all of the ring – don't be tempted to overfill. Gently cook for 3-4 minutes until just set, then carefully remove the rings. Turn the pancakes over and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until cooked through. Keep warm whilst you cook the remaining pancakes. Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese with the vanilla extract and 1 tbsp. of the Golden Syrup and beat well. To serve, place two hearts on each warmed plate, add a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture and then drizzle with the remaining Golden Syrup. CHEF'S TIP You can use ready cooked fresh, vac-packed beetroot in natural juices for this dish if you don't have the time to roast your own beetroot. The resulting colour will be a little less vibrant but the flavour will still be great. Lyle's Golden Syrup Tin Perfect Pancake Recipes Pancake flipping pans at the ready...
