Pancake Day!!!!
Well, we have just finished dinner - and I am feeling just a little bit stuffed.
Today is Shrove Tuesday or otherwise known as Pancake Day.
Pancake Day is the last day before Lent and pancakes were traditionally made on this day to use up the eggs and fat which were not eaten during the fasting period.
How could I let the day go by unnoticed? It is so quick and easy (and tasty!!!).
- Put the flour, baking powder, egg, milk and sugar in a large jug then whiz with a hand-held blender until smooth (or just whisk together in a bowl).
- Heat a non-stick frying pan (add a little butter if you need) and pour in small amounts of batter. Once the top of the pancake has bubbled and set, flip with a palette knife and cook on the other side. Repeat until all the batter is used.
Now, Karen and Danny had their pancake with lemon juice and sugar. They sprinkle sugar on first and then drizzle the lemon juice.
But I like (love) maple syrup with mine - yummy yummy lol.
They were very tasty - in fact I might have to make them again sooner than next year :))
