toasted rolled oats.

seconds or until lightly golden. Add to a plate and cover with a square of
parchment paper to prevent sticking. Keep warm by wrapping in a tea towel.

oiling the pan in between pancakes.

muscovado sugar and stir for two minutes until dissolved.

minutes until thick and toffee-like.

squeeze of lemon and enough icing sugar to sweeten. Puree and then sieve to
remove the seeds. Pour into a jug and let down with water if necessary.
8 Set aside. Heat a wok or saute pan. Peel and slice the bananas and add
the remaining butter to the pan. tip in the bananas. Sprinkle over the
icing sugar and add a squeeze of lemon juice.
9 Saute over a fairly high heat for a few minutes until lightly
caramelised. Tip the bananas into the butterscotch sauce, stirring gently
to combine. Cook for 30 seconds or so and take off the heat.
10 Put a pancake on a plate and spoon on the banana mix. Add a pancake and
smear with toffee sauce and sprinkle over a handful of raspberries,
reserving some for decorating.

finishing with a pancake and a smear of toffee sauce. Decorate with the
reserved raspberries and add a dusting of icing sugar. Place a mint sprig
on top.

some of the remaining butterscotch sauce around the pancake stack. Serve at
