Stuff to put on pancakes - S/D

Although I did know someone who liked to put whipped cream and ham on pancakes. Although it's not rockist, it looked revolting and I could not in good conscience recommend it.

Cane syrup.

cream cheese + smoked salmon.

Also when I was in Hawaii I was introduced to coconut syrup and loved it! I'm guessing you just put some powdered sugar in coconut milk and heat it up.

I put about 3 tablespoons of sugar on mine.

Shrove Tuesday is the Tuesday following Quinguagesima Sunday, and preceding the first day of Lent, or Ash Wednesday.

It was formerly customary in England, on this day, for the people to confess their sins to their parish priests, after which they dined on pancakes, or fritters, and the occasion became one of merriment. The bell rung on this day is popularly called Pancake Bell, and the day itself Pancake Tuesday.

I am without sin, so therefore should need no pancakes. Ring thine own pancake bell.

But yes, I am intrigued by anything featuring dark rum.

Also, I once had Thanksgiving dinner-style pancakes that were amazing: pancakes stuffed with turkey and stuffing, and topped with an awesome cranberry-filled syrup. My mouth's watering just thinking about them...

Alternatively cook some susages, breakfast ones are best but bangers will do in a pinch and wrap your pancakes around them (use a toothpick if your feeling fanc y) and douse with liberal amounts of maple syrup. mmm piggies in a blanket.

Thank you, that was an effective ipecac.

Chocolate chip pancakes....!!!! (*drool*)

Now we're talking. :-)

(not necessarily all on the same pancakes)

destroy: savoury pancakes. They are UNNATURAL AND WRONG.

I don't really like banana on pancakes, because it violates my fruitwa.

A ha! This sounds like pride to me!

and of course Crepes Suzette (avec le flaming cognac!)

I wonder what Sainsbury's say?

Anyway, enough religion, back to orgies and chickpea sacrificing! (I'm a a vegetarian so set those chickens free!)

No lemon juice in this house, but there were some maky lemons laying about. I couldn't remember what to do with the sugar - Do you put it on before or after you've rolled it up?

The Aunt Bessie's things were to pancakes what Chicago Town mini-pizzas are to pizza. They're like 50% of real pancakes.

nutella also tops. i didn't know that about not counting sundays in the 40 days (i'm entirely non-religious, but my BRANE needs to know things like this).

sausage gravy

a fried egg

potatos, meat, carrots, smothered in tomato ketchup.

Favorite thing: just good quality butter, then roll it up and eat like a soft taco.

Well I've just had mine, bloody excellent. Alternating lemon & sugar with maple syrup.

Pancake soirée tonight, 2 hours to go... I'm dangerously hungry already. I'm hoping there's maple syrup in abundance. Bananas also sounds like a good idea.

As I'm in work 'til 8, we're forgoing Pancake Day until tomorrow, when we can introduce them to the boy. I think he'll love 'em.

gotta be maple syrup.

THE REAL SHIT.

I like real fruit, or a nice fruit jam, on pancakes. I also am a fan of the now-mostly-forgotten buckwheat pancake. I make them with buttermilk. Real maple syrup is nice, but even Grade B syrup is too expensive for my blood. My delicacies must be cheap ones.

I used to like Golden Syrup, but it's too sweet for me now.

that's what she said

I had some at my nan's house with golden syrup. She does 'em perfect.

HAPPY PANCAKES DAY

I made pancakes in our new house for the first time. It was ace. Emma was rockist with lemon and sugar. I had two with golden sizzurp, one with lemon curd, and one with bramble jelly.

what is this golden syrup all about? it's just hopped-up corn syrup, right?

No, it's cane syrup, not corn syrup. It's good stuff.

Well, the stuff I'm thinking about, anyway.

This is crazy talk.

100g flour, 2 eggs, 300ml milk, a little oil, done.

my pancakes >>>>>>>>> your blandcakes

i think this weekend i might finally make GINGERBREAD PANCAKES.

recipe plz

Golden syrup in the UK usually means Lyle's Golden Syrup. It's one step in the process of turning sugar cane into white sugar.

i am suspicious of it

I just had 1.5 x lemon & sugar and 2x banana, maple syrup and white chocolate chips pancakes (white chocolate was a pleasant surprise addition after I found an open packet behind a tub of stock powder). Feel bad forsaking the awesome cherry pie filling + squirty cream combo, though.

raspberry jam

my pancakes >>>>>>>>> your blandcakes

We finished off a good plate of 15 or so blandcakes and they were de-li-cious thanks. I mean, ffs, once you've poured maple syrup or choco sauce or bananas and honey over the things ain't nobody gonna know if you've separated the egg whites first.

NOTE that i have not tried this recipe but eagerly anticipate it:

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup brewed coffee, cold or at room temperature
4 large eggs
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Vegetable oil for brushing griddle

Whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl. Whisk together water, coffee, eggs, butter, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add flour mixture and whisk until just combined. Let stand 15 minutes (batter will thicken).

Brush a griddle or 12-inch nonstick skillet with oil and heat over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.

Working in batches of 3 or 4, pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto hot griddle and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip pancakes with a spatula and cook until cooked through and edges are lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a platter and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Brush griddle with oil between batches.

(last bit is obvo)

This German Baked Pancake is fantastic.

That's from personal experience, not "I bet it would be fantastic."

wouldn't a baked pancake be just a... cake?

I guess, but after it comes out of the oven and falls as it cools, it's just a big pancake.

Pancakes were good. Enjoyed with the old-school lemon and sugar topping and, as hoped for, very nice quality Canadian maple syrup.

The over-cooked chocolate cake with the squigy centre and the chewy, nigh on rock-hard in parts, outside casing was surprisingly addictive too.

As per new year, I'm giving up smoking for lent.

LIMONCELLO.

A DONK

I'm going to a pancake party tonight

i might make some today as i didn't yesterday

dammit limoncello makes the kind of fourth-wall busting sense that my brain hadn't quite got around to envisaging

mine were all lemon juice, sugar, raspberry jam, a couple had chopped banana, very conservative :(

yogurt is u&k

apple sauce

can britishes posters please explain what is meant by "pancake filling"?

can someone post a good recipe?

also I HEAR TELL of Guinness being used in pancake batter?

</national stereotype>

I went with the very conservative maple syrup and lemon juice/sugar choices last night. Although, we've got a jar of preserved cherries in the fridge, so I did consider blitzing some of those up with a bit of orange juice.

We found a good batter recipe this year: it uses melted butter for some of the liquid. Then you don't need any oil in your pan.

this works equally well for pancake batter

caviar...dude, what about caviar?

Strawberries, tequila, and sugar, cooked together until the berries have softened and the sugar and tequila have become syrupy.

^--this, this I'll have to try at home.

savoury crepes work surprisingly well; ham and cheese can be a delightful folded crepe, even if it isn't really in the spirit of Shrove

jury's out on caviar, but given my reputation with pizza it's probably not entirely off the agenda

pancake day, and it doesn't seem like we've had a dedicated thread

how on earth was I posting on here 11 years ago

butter & maple syrup pretty much exclusively now

but favorites from childhood include:
lemon juice & sugar
jam & cream
chocolate syrup

can someone explain to me why people were worried about googleproofing Bisquick in 2004?
