It's Pancake Day today!

Whose decided on pancakes for breakfast? or will you be eating some later? Who isn't the biggest fan of pancakes?

There are so many accompaniments to pancakes. I like the traditional sugar and lemon but I've seen people use jams and spreads. 

If you eat them, what do you like to put on your pancakes?

    I like the American pancakes the big fluffy ones but I hate the 1s we do.

    Yeah I'm the same, I don't mind the fluffy small american style ones, but the thin make your own batter ones I don't like and never have. But even the american ones are just okay and wouldn't go out my way to buy them.

    I agree I once as a child  put  nearly a whole jar of jam on to make it taste nice, it ended up in the bin lol.  I think the American ones are cake texture somehow, that's why I like them. But as you say I wouldn't go to buy them, unless grandkids were over.

    I once made my American friend British style pancakes. It is fair to say I offended her :D

    They can be sweet or savory, I think banana, chocolate spread maybe something to give it a bit of a kick, chili.

    Traditional with lemon and sugar on pancake day.


    I do love the American ones though and our little Scottish ones are perfect warmed up and put with ice cream and squirty treat sauces.

    All pancakes are super yummy

    My fave are traditional lemon and sugar ones.....but none for me this year because I have given up sugar (and don't do other sweeteners either). This thread has had me salivating!!!

    Isn’t this just a variation on good old Yorkshire Pudding and gravy? Once again reinventing the wheel

    I know that pancake day was the other day,but my favourite ones have Nutella,peaches, pineapple, sometimes strawberries, whipped cream,then folded in half and drizzled with melted chocolate.

    YUMMY!
