Ingredients

• 3eggs
• 3 1/2 ozsuperfine sugar
• 2 tbsphoney
• 5 3/4 ozall-purpose flour
• 1 tspbaking powder
• 10 1/2 ozred bean paste
• 1 tbspvegetable oil

Method

1. 1

   Whisk the eggs, sugar and honey together until pale and slightly thickened.

2. 2

   Sift the flour and baking powder over the top and fold them in until just smooth, then cover the bowl and leave the batter to rest.

3. 3

   Wipe a non-stick pan with the barest film of oil and set it over low-medium heat. Drop in tablespoons of batter and cook until the surface is covered in burst bubbles and the underside is an even golden brown.

4. 4

   Flip each one and give it another thirty seconds or so, then stack them under a clean dish towel so they steam gently and stay soft.

5. 5

   Pair the pancakes by size and put a generous spoonful of red bean paste on the paler side of one, doming it in the middle, then press the other on top and cup the edges to seal.
