    I found a 300 ml pottle of milk just right with these ingredients, making a perfect stock base for differing styles, – bacon & maple syrup, blueberries &/or bananas with maple syrup, spicy mexican beans with sour cream, or as a batter for bread fritters with tomato relish….

    Can’t wait to try these have tried quite a few pancake recipes over time, and while they are ok, this one looks really good, so am keen to try. Thanks for this. I’m talking about the one at the top, not the one someone posted halfway down the page, which sorry but I found bit rude. Why not start your own page, not try to get in on someone else. Just my opinion, everyone else might be quite happy,with that, I just find it bit rude. Anyway looking forward to trying the top of the page recipe, and my son can’t wait to try them. Many thanks for posting it.

    Also to add to my first comment, I use a flat sandwich press to cook them, and each pancake I use a 1/4 cup as a scoop and it makes about 8.

      I would only do this if you need a yummy meal in quicker time. My friend uses a sandwich press and it pushes out most of the fluffyness of the pancake. If you have the time, definitely avoid the sandwich press.
      In a hurry, the pancakes are still pretty good.

    I tried this recipe and half way through I realised I didn’t have any eggs so I added 1/4 cup of apple sauce to substitute and it worked fine, I also only put half a tablespoon of baking powder in a small I was to scared to do too much and it also worked fine. They turned out very fluffy and delicious 5/5 recommend

    first off I must say, what a great recipe! although I did face a few issues with the consistency of the batter but that was soon solved by milk!😊👍 kids loved it especially with bacon!😋 10/10 would make again!
