250g bacon
1 egg
62ml sugar
62ml + 62ml milk
15ml vegetable oil
250ml flour
10ml baking powder
1ml salt
Preheat your oven to 180℃ and line a baking tray with baking paper.
Cut another piece of baking paper that is slightly larger than your baking tray and keep aside.
Lay the bacon flat on the prepared tray.
Place the extra paper on top of the bacon and another baking tray on top of the paper.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
Cool the bacon on a cooling rack and pat it dry with paper towel to remove excess fattiness.
Add the egg and sugar to a mixing bowl and whisk together by hand.
Add 62ml milk and the vegetable oil and whisk until amalgamated.
Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into the mixture and stir to combine.
Drizzle in the last 62ml milk while mixing, to form a thick, smooth batter.
Place a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Pour in a splash of vegetable oil and wait for it to warm up.
Dip a bacon rasher into the batter and then immediately into the pan.
Fry for 3 minutes per side or until cooked and golden.
Serve the bacon flapjacks with maple syrup or honey.
