It's Pancake Day

cliche pancake day phrase: 'oh pancakes are nice, why don't we have them more often?'
and then you never ever have them on any other day.

I'm going all out for pancakes this evening.
Savory
American Pancakes with bacon/parma, cheese n maple syrup
Pancakes with Broccoli & Cheese & probably some other savory ones, but last year the american ones were very filling.
Sweet
Lemon n cheese
Kinder pancakes
Creme Egg pancakes
Cooked strawberries n creme pancakes
Loadsa spinkles & chocolate flakes
Reese's filling & all the others, caramel, chocolate, etc
There is a Gordon Ramsay chocolate pancake that I'll be trying with cream and ice cream.

I cannot wait!

Thin, with ham, cheese, banana, maple syrup and a squeeze of lemon here, yum.

Oops. Missed this thread. Sorry drac.

Mine were consumed earlier today, in the woods, having been cooked on open fire.
Sadly, as we had Early Years workers with us, there was no sugary goodness allowed.... 🙁

Sorry drac.

😀

Two batches of batter made:

1. "British" for savoury (plain flour, more eggs)
2. American for pudding (self raising flour, fewer eggs)

Ham, cheese and maple syrup.

Just need to collect Mme North from the station & for Mlle North to be brought home by grandparents.

Waitrose ready made for me.. And Nutella.

Gourmet, or wot.

No just bone idol.

Gourmet, or wot.

Wot.

But, but they're such a pain..

And stink the place wrotten like.

Just open the microwave, chuck in with random arm movement, press Go. Ping' and cut the packaging open, steam eyebrows off with gushes of steam, slither contents on plate.. Spread copious amounts of Nutella with pallet knife, wash down with triple single malt whiskey to numb the scolded throat down.

That's wot.

They're a piece of piss to make.

Heathen.

Simplest thing ever IMO.

But, but they're such a pain..

Is there another world with less problems than the first world? If there is, that's where you live.

Main - leek, spinach, cheese and pine nuts
Dessert - nutella

American style pancakes with Tebay Cumberland sausage, bacon, Doreen's black pudding and maple syrup.

The kids wolfed them down. We need another trip to England....

See, wredy mayd.

It's that time again.

I'm still a lemon and sugar fan but partial to maple syrup too now too.

I would normally say freshly squeezed lemon juice and sugar but this weekend I stayed on a boat in Wells Next the Sea and had smoked salmon and cream cheese pancakes, which were very nice.

As it's just me at home, I don't bother with pancakes these days.

Looking forward to making the kids some for breakfast in about 90 mins time when I fever back from my training run. Just lemon and only a tiny bit of sugar so they don't go too mental before school.

Just had 4 covered in maple syrup , MrsbeanZ 2 with lemon and sugar .

Mmmmmmmm can't wait to get home tonight !

I was tempted to take the day off just for pancakes with my lad.... but seemed excessive.

Breakfast... I can't be bothered with all the hassle of making a battery mess, but I can't let the day pass without stuffing my face.

The Mrs and I turned up for a pancake party last Tuesday. When we arrived no one was there and we realised we had the date wrong. She still knocked some up when we got home as our 3 year old was sad there was no party!

Still we get to go tonight so pancakes two weeks in a row for us!

Knocked some up last night as a practice. Today will be lemon and sugar first followed by banana, toffee sauce and spray cream.

A waste of good Yorkshire pudding batter!

partial to maple syrup too now too

This is a very good thing. Just make sure it's Canadian stuff you're buying, straight from a Quebec maple tree. Mmmmmmm. 😛

Oh, and how did this thread get resurrected after TWO YEARS? I thought threads were closed after a year.

And some of you lot don't believe in miracles. 😉

Blurry shot of me and my 3-year-old boy's brekkies...

Pancakes tonight - lemon and sugar

The the tough call - what to give up for Lent? Caffeine is a strong contender so better have a strong coffee now!

I was having pancakes with the kids every fortnight or so, haven't done that in a little while though

They're usually made with banana, oat flour, milk and egg, with honey on top. The kids sit on the kitchen counter and eat them as they come off one by one

Today I managed to make the kids and wife 1 each before I went to work. We went with lemon and sugar, as it's a classic. Still used oat flour as they're then a bit more filling and still tasty!

Still lemon and sugar.

Someone's about to get his mind blown (again)!

And in these uncertain times I'm always glad to see Drac's unwavering devotion to classic lemon and sugar.

Just the one for me at breakfast this morning, forgot until I'd pretty much finished.

On holiday so will make up for it tomorrow.

Surprised that it is panacke day already, it must have creped up on me!!!

Love others but yup still the traditional is my favourite

Hmm.. I have some of this in the cupboard and it is delicious... I wonder...

Little fluffy pancakes with honey and bacon and a fried egg on the side for my holiday breakfast. Don't think pancake day is a thing out in the canaries but I've done my bit.

Surprised that it is panacke day already

As if three ingredients was too much to handle. 😆

Looking for some salad leaves the other day I saw a load of these on the supermarket shelf:

I briefly inspected the tub. It appeared to be constructed of such thick plastic so as it would easily bear the weight of a middle-aged time-poor-yet-credit-rich person looking for an easy lazy answer to one of life's conundrums non-existent quandaries. I right then and there wished to find that person and see if I couldn't dispose of these tubs up their waste-pipe.

My respect for our species is eroded daily. Sometimes in great falling chunks, like a mile-wide berg of the Arctic Shelf falling away. Sometimes in drips, like the ever-present twittering of seemingly random fact-free verbs and consonants which somehow pool into the poison that passes for everyday/political discourse.

Lemon and sugar for me. Heavy on the lemon.

Me and the kids all had pancakes for breakfast. 2 each with either honey or lemon and sugar. Then cooked up a batch of cheese pancakes and honey infused pancakes to go in lunch boxes. Pancakes for dinner planned as well. May go for an egg on top and finished under the grill. Mmmm.

for our T1D daughter, low carb version of the simple pancake. 4 eggs, tub of soft cheese, couple of spoons of coconut flour, whisk to a batter. wish me luck...

I've never considered the pancake itself to be particularly high carb (obviously its not zero carbs) but its when covered in sugar and lemon, or nutella it becomes not so T1D friendly...

...interested to hear what your concoction tastes like. Because I have 2 coeliacs in the house and simple crepes would win me brownie points.

I'm looking forward to the pancakes tonight.

Banana and chocolate spread. Will try chopping up a Mars bar too.

I have a feeling my 2 year old will be a bit hyper after supper!

White wheatflour, milk, whole eggs, cooked in fat. It's basically a stack of fried-egg butties served with a glass of milk*

*Except now the bread is also fried and then sprinkled/smeared with refined sugar 😐

I can't wait for tonight's pancakes. Damn you, STW.

Maple syrup and peanut butter.... Always!!
