Sift the flour with the baking powder into a bowl, then combine this mixture with the other mixture of sugar and yolk.

STEP 3
Pour a tablespoon of the batter into a hot, non-stick pan and cook on a medium heat to form a disc approximately 6-7 cm in diameter. After about one minute, flip the pancake to cook it on both sides. Once the pancake is golden brown, remove it from the pan. Repeat this process until the batter is all used up. Finally, serve 2 hot pancakes stacked with approximately 7 g of Nutella® each and decorate with fresh fruit such as strawberries, blueberries and peaches. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
