1

Stir sugar, yeast and 30ml warm water in a bowl to dissolve and set aside in a warm area until foamy (10-15 minutes). Melt butter in 200ml milk in a saucepan over medium heat, remove from heat and add remaining milk and water, then yeast mixture.

2

Sift flours, bicarbonate of soda and baking powder into a bowl, form a well in the centre, and whisk in milk and water mixture to just combine. Stand at room temperature until doubled in size (30 minutes minimum)

3

Warm a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and butter the inside of some egg rings. Place rings in the pan, half-fill with batter and cook until bases are golden, holes appear on the surface and mixture sets (5-6 minutes). Gently flip then place in an oven preheated to 180C and cook for 3 minutes to ensure centres are cooked through.

4

Serve hot with good butter and raw honey or superb quality maple syrup.
