Breakfast Yorkie
This recipe is inspired by the German pancakes I had when I was out in Berlin . Texture-wise they were very much like a Yorkshire pudding , but sweet and served with icing sugar and syrup . So , I ’ ve recreated my version of exactly what I loved about that breakfast : Yorkshire pudding batter , crisp in places , soft in others , crunchy with granola and zesty with marmalade and oranges .

1 Start by making the batter . Put the eggs , flour and milk into a jug and , using a hand blender , whizz the mixture until it ’ s thick , even and lump-free . Give the jug a few bangs on the work surface to get rid of any air bubbles . Pop the mixture into the fridge for at least 10 mins , to rest . 2 Meanwhile , tip the clarified butter into a 20cm cast-iron pan or cake tin . Heat the oven to 240C / 220C fan / gas 9 and put the pan into the oven as it heats up . The pan should be hot and the butter should be very hot before pouring the batter in . 3 Have the batter and 40g granola ready . Take the very hot pan out of the oven and leave the oven door open . Pour the batter in , sprinkle the granola on top and bake for 20 – 25 mins , until the batter has risen and is crisp and brown around the edges and softer in the centre . 4 While the yorkie is baking , put the orange segments into a small pan , squeezing out any remaining juice . Add the marmalade and gently warm through . 5 . As soon as the yorkie is out , spread over the warm orange marmalade and segments , sprinkle over the extra granola , dust with icing sugar and it ’ s ready to eat .
