Pancakes
 

So just wondering is anyone going to make pancakes tomorrow!!!??!?

i so wish i was at home!!! me and my mum and brother usually make them every year!! :):)

and when i was younger me and my counsins about 10 of us went up to my grannies house and used to make them with her!!! and eat them too of course lol!!!! she has a big old stove and they were lush!!

im at uni so probs wont bother making them we will see!!!

hmm... would be making them... but our oven and hob are broken (ave been for over a week) so can't make anything that needs anything other than the slow cooker...

Ive just bought the eggs and flour.....

no oven :-( lol i not got any scales!! :( and i dont have the money to buy them!!!! *silly scholarship not coming through* lol

I've been lazy this year and bought sweet pancakes.

I'll just zap 'em tomorrow.

grr... I really want pancakes tomorrow now...


how can I make them with a rice/slow cooker?

I bought some 'Betty crocker pancake mix', American style. yum!

Why tomorrow?

It's Shrove Tuesday aka Pancake Day

I made my batter tonight

nommy

Tomorrow is PANCAKE DAY!!

Ok - Cam got there first :(

Eeeep, pancake day :)
Bought some pancake mix today.
And NUTELLA- I am hoping that doesn't make it too sickly...

Haha I've never heard of pancake day.
It sounds awesome!

Jelly - hello and I got there first cause I'm awesome!

How have you never heard of pancake day before?!?! It's like one of the best days of the year and it's the day before lent!

It really annoys me that I can't eat them.
They always smell amazing.

I'll make them for my Dad though :)

I'm having some friends over and my mum is going to make pancakes for everyone! Its an excuse to eat some rubbish before I give up sweet things for lent :)

We've never had pancakes on Pancake Day =[
Mum doesn't like them, so she won't cook them, and I'm just too useless to try.

Really want one now though!

Why can't you eat them? =O

that photo of those pancakes looks a bit too perfect heh heh.
i can't eat them either unless they're wheat free which would be possible but not much point making the effort on my own..

It's strange that people especially buy ingredients, the idea is to use up what you already have at the start of lent. Another festival hijacked by commercialism I suppose. :(

that's very true. or another festival reduced to mostly just being about food.

We had ours tonight because we're not going to be at home tomorrow (traveling so won't be able to make them)... and my parents said my teeth would fall out! I had syrup, sugar, lemon juice and lime juice on my pancakes. Sugar-induced coma!
:tongue2:

My housemate wants to make panckaes
she loves to cook

They have too much/many eggs in them.
I'm quite intolerant, so they make me ill D:

They smell so, so good.
As do omelettes.

I work in a shop, and we've never sold so many lemons in one day before!
I love pancake day. Any day dedicated to food is fine by me :D

I probably haven't ever heard of pancake day cause I live in Canada.
And as far as I'm concerned pancakes don't get their own special day here.
I haven't had pancakes in ages, now I want some!

i cant wait for later on so i can make pancakes for breakfast!

"eggs,little flour, pancake power!"

wait theirs such thing as pancake day? thats so funny.

I get the ready made kind so I just have to add water.

I want pancakes now

darn I am an american. We don't celebrate this

its pancake day!????

YIPPEEE!!!!!!

The only time we ever get pancakes!

I'm going to have pancakes for tea :) Going to try make savoury ones with salmon and spinach and cheese sauce...it works in my head, just not sure about reality. We shall see lol

there's probably some kind of dried / powdered egg in the mix.

Duhhh pretend youre from the UK!Perfect excuse.x

Om nom nom nom pancakes =D

Nommy pancakes =D

I'm hopefully getting some at Ghost in Snow's house tomorrow =]

Marie: Pancake Recipe Without Eggs

• 2 tablespoon all purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon sugar (to taste)
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 1/2 pint milk
• A pinch of salt

Procedure
Take a large bowl and mix flour, sugar, and salt in it. Make a batter by adding in gradual amount of milk. Do not let the clots form. Keep on beating the mixture for at least ten minutes. While beating, add the melted butter to it and beat it again. Leave the mixture to set for 10 minutes and bake them individually on a griddle. Add a layer of maple syrup between each of the pancakes and serve!

^_^

Woohoo, Pancake Day :-). I'm sooooo looking forward to having a few for tea tonight. When I was in primary school I also used to look forward to the next day as we'd always had an unofficial competition to see who'd eaten the most, there was always someone wh had eaten more than me.

Or rather times have moved on and we don't give up those ingredients any more...we give up other things to show our thankfulness instead?

Gabz. You're brilliant.
I really love you.

Imma try and make some later.
^_^

Yay! You're welcome! =]

Let me know how they go. =D

I've just remembered that if you make too many pancakes you can freeze them (put a piece of greaseproof paper between each one) :)

A whole day devoted to pancakes 0-o how odd! lol

&& I have never heard of anybody putting lemon or lime juice on pancakes before ahaha!

^
Lemon juice and sugar is probably the most widely used 'topping' for sweet pancakes. It's nice because it's not too sharp and not too sweet... perfect... and the sugar melts a bit too if you put it on immediately after cooking the pancake. My dad works in ASDA and he says they sell more lemon and lime juice at this time of year than they do any other time!

I want some more now but I had too many last night!

Yes!

I don't especially like them but I make them for me and my dad every year and I'll have a small one. Any more than that is too much I think.

for the kind i have you should add an egg but I never do

And some of us just don't 'do' the whole lent thing anyway, or is that just me?

Anyhoos, my parents have bough the ready made type mixes, haha.
If it was just me, I'd make them myself, but I don't think anyone else would eat homemade ones for some reason :confused:

I'm the same and I can't have dairy either lol :crazy: So, it costs loadss to make pancakes that I can actually eat xx

Well yeah, but I was thinking more of the tradition in it than the now commercialised aspect. =P

I usually eat home made ones, but I make them all year round so it's not exactly a big thing. Andddd, I love pancakes.

I love pancakes so much. :Grin:
