Title: Pancake Day
Post by: Judd on February 13, 2024, 11:12:04 PM
Did anyone make the traditional pancakes today - not crêpes, galettes, tortillas, or oatcakes. Just plain simple British style pancakes made with flour, eggs, and milk?

I didn't. I forgot. :sad:

No.  It's never been something I've done.  My son in law made some for my granddaughter, she rang to tell me how nice they were. 🥞

My Nana used to make lots and lots of Pancakes on the day, along with lots of different toppings on wee saucers. Us 4 girls scoffed the lot when we came in from school. We got no tea that evening as we were aye full.  :busted:

Always used to buy those packs of ready made ones that you just pop in the microwave and ding. Forgotten entirely this year.

Good old St. Delia - that's the recipe I use too.

:wtf: I saw some bottles of `pancake mix` in my local shop - instructions were, just add water, so it's probably just a mixture of flour, powdered milk, and powdered egg. Can't think of anything more revolting.
