On a whim I bought a pack of 6 scotch pancakes. I have fallen in love with them.
Toasted with.......
Banana and honey
Honey and ice cream.
Next** I will try banana, honey and ice cream.

On leaving school (1976) my first job was in a Little Chef and American pancakes were a favourite there, either with maple syrup or ice cream and chocolate or raspberry sauce.
I love English pancakes, I loved American ones too.

Pancakes are a breakfast staple for the girls, what could be easier.? Milk, flour and egg...easy to.prep, gotta be better than cereals.
Never bought ready made mix, seems a bit pointless to.me, its so easy as it is.

I make the mixture the night before, the next morning push whoever I've been sleeping with out of bed at 6:30 so he can make pancakes ready for me coming down at 7 o'clock.

Not like you have to be in work by 8am. Mindfulness. TBH, it's overnight oats, berries, seeds and yoghurt here currently EVERY morning. It's stopping me snacking and I'm dropping some weight.

So quick to make, whether american style, drop scones or continental crepes.

Can always make them in advance and then warm them up in the toaster. And will be way better than anything bought. Made some lovely banana pancakes the other night.

BBC Good food recipes for banana pancakes and fluffy american are my go-to. For crepes, I use an old french recipe.

My son suddenly got into waffles a few weeks ago, but he must have overdone the raising agent as they tasted like a chemistry lab.
And I can't begin to convey the horror of the waffle irons overflowing and burning!

I prefer traditional thin pancakes but do occasionally love drop scones (scotch pancakes)

Yeast-risen waffles are the way to go. They don't go rubbery when cold, either. My go-to are Gaufres de Namur. Good when hot straight out of the iron with whipped cream and bitter chocolate sauce, and good when cold alongside a nice

N.B. these recipes are for fresh yeast. Halve the quantity if using dried.
