Pancake Day!

[pogofish]

This returns only one google result.
And its this page..

Scottish people are hilarious.

Someone posted this last time too - it changes nothing, except maybe indicates the level of anglicisation of some things!

 

[pogofish]

what do Scottish people call scotch eggs?

Shite!

 

[joustmaster]

Despite posting on this thread, I've not read it, and I've only just discovered it's today after a friend posting a picture of herself eating a banana pancake in Thailand

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Now I'm getting Facebook threats that people are going to ring and remind someone it's pancake day so I'm going to have to go and make some before I'm grassed up

Bananas, lemon, butter and sugar.

I've got a bellyache now. Think I was eating them too fast as was too cold in the kitchen

You can buy the ready-made mix to save doing it yourself

 

[Hellsbells]

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I don't understand that stuff. It's not really much hassle to sift some flour, crack a couple of eggs and whisk it up with milk then leave it for half an hour.

I ended up making corn pancake thingies as I CBA to go the shop for eggs and I had a bag of stoneground cornflour that's been lurking at me for ages.

Saves on the mess and (in my case) trying to get the lumps out. (I didn't buy any mix btw as I forgot). Kitchen mess is for himself to clean up

Yes, just put it in the fridge and shake before you cook it.

I feel sick...

If you don't eat/buy eggs the mix is ideal But I have an egg free recipe now

I do eat eggs just not the shitters from the corner shop. Anyway I managed to have something pancake like without anyway.

 

[badseed]

What's your recipe?

I don't really follow an exact recipe but these are the ingredients for one.
1 egg beaten
about 1/4 cup water
Some sweetener (2tsp?) - your call
Enough Almond meal (1/4 - 1/2 cup) to make it a thick mixture, you still need to pour it so make about the same as thick cream.

In the past I have also added vanilla protein powder that I was given.
I fry it then put it under the grill (they won't survive any flipping action)

One is enough when you add berries or whatever.
I buy a bag of frozen mixed berries each week and they are perfect when they are defrosted.

We couldn't be arsed to cook so went to the ever-wonderful Shahee Bhelpoori in Norbury.

I suddenly remember it was pancake Tuesday and had a dosa to celebrate!

 

[spring-peeper]

We had blueberry pancakes with maple syrup.
