    Traditional pancake recipe

    Who can resist the good old traditional pancake - thin and sweet we traditionally serve ours with sugar and lemon. These are sometimes referred to as crepes. They are less filling than thicker, American style pancakes and are much more fun to flip on pancake day!

    American style pancakes

    If you are more of a fan of the American style pancakes then this is a great recipe for fluffy pancakes. My children love these with chocolate spread or you could eat them with bacon and maple syrup.
