Poly, not my recipe, it came from a diabetes forum. Flour, milk, syrup, sugars etc all high in carbs, eggs, cheese usually low in carbs. We have also found that pancakes tend to spike BG levels so try to avoid, but they are so nice..will let you know how it gets on, i suspect it will turn into a cheese omelette.

Just whipped up some flour, milk and a duck egg and made myself a triple-decker pancake bake with cheese and salami filling. Served with home made coleslaw. And there is enough mix left to make a nice lemon and sugar one for later when the first lot have gone down 🙂

I'll make 10 out of a pint of batter. I'm impressed 👍

American style, not enough baking powder so were slightly tough. Golden Syrup and banana.

In keeping with bike industry trends, this year I'm going to make the batter a tiny bit slacker and I'm going to use a bigger diameter pan to really make the pancakes come alive. Hopefully that won't cause any extra rolling resistance.

Can anyone recommend a good recipe for making fluffy American/Canadian style pancakes? I tried a random one that I found by Google once (can’t remember which one though!) and they weren’t fluffy enough.

SR flour and Baking powder plus use some natural yoghurt to activate the baking powder, let the batter stand for a hour or two.

Nigella Lawson’s recipe works well.

There used to be a franchise called The Pancake Place. Was the highlight of my childhood Mum taking me and Sister to it on a weekend.

In fact my Mum looked into opening one at one time, but(and this is early 80's) and it was in the region of £1/4 million.
Knocked that idea on the head, which is a shame as Shawlands in Glasgow was the ideal area.

MUSHROOMS??? With Garlic??? you're a wrong un buddy.

Well, I've just whipped up some creamy batter ahead of tossing in the kitchen.

What do other readers think?

Mushrooms go great with garlic, that and a bit of grated cheese may well be my starter pancake tonight.

Mixed up 2 litres and made 34 8 inch ones to share between four of us all with Golden Syrup on. Dog as usual had 2 plain ones so as to not miss out.

Pancakes with lemon and sugar for lunch, then Toad in the Hole for dinner ("tea" for the northerners). Trying to get into the spirit of whatever it is.

FBG insisted on American style pancakes. Never made them before but a quick google search for a recipe and jobs a good one. Apparently they were the best he’s ever had. Even better than the ones Mrs D makes and even the McDonalds ones. High praise indeed!

Sausage and onion American style pancakes for tea with potato and veg hash to get some sort of veg in the meal. Kids didn't fancy the idea of savoury pancakes but they were delicious!

Followed up by normal pancakes for pudding with lemon & sugar, syrup and home made Nutella that my daughter made. Yummerz!

I picked up some Maple Butter from M&S last night but I’ll still be mostly lemon and sugar.

Just plain with a bit of sugar is my preferred way. My record is 14 in one sitting, not going to try and best that this year though as I'm watching the calories!

Might stop at 10.
