200g cherries
1 orange
200g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1 pinch salt

25g butter
crème fraîche, to serve

Method:

1. Stone and quarter the cherries.
2. Zest and juice the oranges.

4. Melt the butter.
5. To make the syrup, put 100g sugar and 200ml water into a heavy-based saucepan, and bring to the boil.
6. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture forms a syrup. Leave to cool.
7. Put the cherries in a bowl with 2 tbsp sugar, the orange zest and juice, and mix evenly to coat.
8. Cover and leave in the fridge to macerate for 30 minutes.
9. Strain the cherries, reserving the liquid. Add the cherry liquid to the cooled syrup base.

13. Add the dry ingredients, a third at a time, and whisk until you have a thick, relatively smooth batter.
14. Whisk the egg whites until stiff, and gently fold into the batter, until evenly combined. Cover and rest for 10-15 minutes.
15. Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat.
16. Brush lightly with butter, then drop 2 tbsp batter into the pan to make pancakes about 10cm in diameter (make two at a time).
17. After 2-3 minutes, or when bubbles appear on the surface, flip the pancakes and cook for 1 minute or until golden.
18. Transfer to the warm oven while you cook the rest.
