[mabel]

we made some american pancakes for our elevenses

mmme delicious, little ones loved them ! keep asking for more

I said they can if they eat all their lunch !

Just singing our pancake song now

Five crispy pancakes in a frying pan,
Flip them and toss them and catch them if you can.
Along came Garrett for a pancake one day.
Mom sprinkled it with sugar and he took it away.

then off for a walk,

[Peppa]

Good song..... I shall be burning pancakes tonight!!!!!!

Well I will try not to but you know, you never know! :blush:

[peanuts]

my lot had toasted pancakes for breakfast. ive got pancakes for the afterschoolers to eat as well. ive not had one yet but will for my lunch

[LOOPYLISA]

I think i will be waiting for hubby to get home and do them, last year me and dd both had burns from tossing the pancakes(too much oil):blush: i then dropped the frying pan onto the kitchen lino :eek: we now have a lovely circle shape on the floor :rolleyes:

[amirose]

Had some last night with the brownies, I swotted up on the meaning of pancake day and said very proudly to the girls "So do you all know what pancake day is" to which they replied "ooh ooh yer yer its err WHEN YOU GET TO EAT LOTS OF PANCAKES!" :laughing:

I will be making the egg free ones with my mindee later when Ive picked her up from school (have no idea how there going to turn out though! :panic: )

[Annie_T]

none yet but will have a few later

woop woop .(sorry love saying that when happy/excited etc lol)

[Spangles]

We're waiting until tonight when hubby will do them as I can't toss them, I make a right cackhanded attempt at it and they go wrong! Just get a plate of mush if I do them!

Can't wait, they are scrummy!

[hbomb1]

I have just made four, but only two were edible :blush:

Made one for my DD (2) and mindee (1). DD only ate a quarter of hers and the rest fell into my mouth. Mindee still eating his. Put a little sugar and lemon juice on ...mmm !

Will be doing it again after school!

[Hebs]

[katickles]

We're having ours after dinner tonight aswell. I LOVE PANCAKES, not sure who will be more excited, after schooler & dd or me :D

[Peppa]

[FizzysFriends]

so whats the secret to a good pancake?

Letting the batter rest before using it and using the pan at the right temp

[vix84]

Has anyone got the batter recipe? Im not minding yet - but am still going to celebrate pancake day! Just cant remember the quantities:blush:

[rickysmiths]

Only one mindee this afternoon so will make some for family tonight but do with mindees tomorrow.

We are doing the no heat method!:clapping: :clapping:

Take one paper plate:
add one coloured pancake
plus coloured slices of fruit
plus glue!!!

or the pizza pancake with tomato paste base then add slices of veg coloured and cut up yellow tissue fot the cheese topping.

[Rubybubbles]

none:littleangel: on a diet!

I have bought some ready made ones as I can;t make them! for the mindies

then at the weekend when hubby back he will make the kids some:clapping: he makes lovely pancakes (shame I won't be eating them!)

[loocyloo]

we've gone a bit pancake mad here! :laughing: :clapping: :laughing:

pancakes for breakfast, with fruit.

sweetcorn pancakes for lunch ( thick and chunky, great with ketchup )

sweetcorn pancakes and pikelets ( mini pancakes, like you can buy ) with assorted spreads for afterschool snack

pancake tuna rolls (and veggies) for tea followed by sweet pancakes!

i have spent the afternoon making them, and will just heat them up when we need them! other wise, takes too long!

i find the best thing to do, is to mix batter in blender, then let it rest for 1/2 hr or so, give it another quick spin and use. i have a small non stick frying pan that i only use for pancakes ( not that we have them that much! ) and i brush with a dribble of vegetable oil before each pancake!

basic pancake recipe
125g plain flour
pinch salt ( i usually forget! )
1 egg
300ml milk

oil for frying

sift flour and salt into a bowl, make a 'well' in the centre, break egg into centre, mix well , gradually add milk, mixing in flour as you go to make smooth batter.

BUT! i do it in the blender ... putting milk and egg in first, then adding flour and blitzing them alltogther! much easier and faster, and less messy!

heat frying pan, add dribble of oil, pour a little batter into pan, enough to thinly coat bottom of pan, cook 1-2 mins, toss/turn ( i never toss untill pancake already cooked both sides!!! ) and cook until golden.

[kindredspirits]

we had a huge pancake activity planned..... 1 mindee was sent home sick at 11am - after schoolers 1 didn't want pancakes, he's having them at home :rolleyes: and the other said i do want a pancake, but i don't want to make them - he ate one and didn't want anymore!!!!

i would like to make a stack later, but might not as i will feel very guilty afterwards!! :D

[sarah32]

Made them for my lot after school. All had one each and didnt want anymore.
