INGREDIENTS
Whipped butter
250 g butter, at room temperature
1 lemon, zested (optional)
Maple bacon
8 rashers bacon
80 ml maple syrup
Salt flakes, to taste
Griddle cakes
220 g flour
½ tsp salt flakes
2 tsp (7 g) dried yeast
50 g raw sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
300 ml milk, lukewarm
80 g butter, melted

METHOD
Whipped butter
- Transfer the butter and zest to a bowl of a freestanding mixer with a paddle attachment and beat until pale and light, approximately 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a clean container with a lid and refrigerate if not using immediately.
Maple bacon
- Arrange the bacon evenly on a baking tray, lined with baking paper. Brush liberally with maple syrup then sprinkle with salt flakes.
- Place into the oven on shelf level 3. Select Moisture Plus with Fan Plus at 180°C with 1 burst of steam, releasing the burst of steam at 3 minutes. Cook for approximately 12-14 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
Griddle cakes
- Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl then add eggs, milk and the melted butter. Mix well until combined.
- Place into the oven on Prove yeast dough and prove for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat the griddle plate on medium-high heat, induction setting 6.
- Pour or ladle approximately ½ cup of the batter onto the griddle pan.
- When bubbles begin to form on the surface, add the blueberries then carefully fold in half.
- Cook for a further 2-3 minutes, flipping once to cook through.
To serve
- Serve warm with whipped butter, maple bacon and maple syrup.
Hints and tips
- Whipped butter can be refrigerated but is best served at room temperature.
- Seasonal fruit can be substituted for the blueberries.
- If your oven doesn’t have Prove yeast dough function, you can prove in a warm area until doubled in size.
