Breakfast to love

I am not a breakfast fanatic myself. I normally wake up, drink some coffee maybe eat some cookies and that'll be that. But today I woke up feeling... "breakfast-ish" and this image of Jaime Oliver came into my mind and him saying some delicious stuff about some pear pancakes and I was all "Well all right". 
Lately with the whole cold issue going on, it's been pretty hard for me to go downstairs... but I was all "Fight the cold lady! Fight it! FIGHT IT!" And sure enough, by the time I was cooking the pancakes I began feeling less cold and more anxious, not to mention... hungry! 

Take a look at that!

Didn't I tell you prettier pictures? 

And the best thing about this recipe is that is so damn simple and so utterly delicious it's insane! 

First of, you need a cup... coffee cup or your regular tea cup or a cup okay? Just a regular cup. Fill that cup up with either self-raising flour or normal four and pour it in a bowl (if you are using regular flour like yours truly, add about half a tablespoon of baking powder to the mix) then fill that same cup with milk and add it to the mix. Next grind an entire pear into the mix. And an egg. Mix well and then add a couple of teaspoons of sugar. 
Mix again and then on a previously heated skillet add a knob of butter and pour you pancake mix and wait for it to cook. 

When your pancakes are done, serve them with some natural yoghurt and drizzle some honey on top and I am telling you. BEST BREAKFAST EVER.

Don't be expecting a really sweet kind of pancakes because it won't happen. The honey, I think, adds all the sugar you can possibly need and the yoghurt just adds freshness to an already, relaxed pancakes which are a joy to eat. 
Please, give it a try! I know what I am talking about! 
Trust me for once, yeah?
