Description

Create a mini camp cooker from a drinks can and cook some pancakes.

Resources

Drinks Can
Sellotape
Matches
Scissors
Tealight
Ingredients:
1 Medium Egg
60g Plain Flour
150ml Milk
Pinch of Salt

Instructions

Carefully pierce a hole in the middle of the can and use this hole to cut the can in half across the middle. Recycle the end with the ring pull as you don't need this.
Cut a 2cm x 2cm hole at the edge of the can and then another one on the opposite side. These will give the candle an air supply. Place Sellotape over the cut edge of the can, do this a few times in order to ensure all the sharp edges are covered.
Light the tea light and put the can over the candle. Be careful, as the can will start to get hot. Wait for a few minutes for the can to heat up. Whilst waiting, mix the ingredients into a smooth batter and then cook in the curved base.
Keep an eye on your can cooker and when the mini pancake is cooked enough you can eat it. Make sure to not touch the can as this will now be very warm. Before you start eating, take a photo of your mini pancake and share it with your BB group or post on social media using #BBatHOME.

NOTES FOR PARENTS/CARERS
The cut can may have sharp edges, please ensure they are covered in a few layers of Sellotape. Please supervise activity, especially when using scissors or cooking. An adult should initiate any contact with the BB group and/or share on social media.
