We’ve recently created our own Pancake mix by adding some great products to our Pancake Day special offers list. So make sure you have all the equipment in the kitchen on 16th February – then follow the easy recipe & instructions below to make your own pancakes.
Ingredients
- 100g (4oz) plain flour
- 1 egg
- 300ml (1/2 pint) milk
- oil for frying
Instructions
To make the pancake batter, add the milk, egg and then the flour and blend using an electric blender or food processor. Or if a blender is not available, sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Add the egg and beat well. Then add the milk gradually and beat to make a smooth batter.
Heat a little oil in a large frying pan until hot and then pour enough batter to thinly coat the base of the pan. Cook for a couple of minutes each side.
I’ve just asked around the Alliance Online office to find out some of the team’s favourite toppings…
Emma – Grilled bananas and Nutella
Mike – Lemon and Sugar
Viki – Maple syrup and sugar
Mark – Blueberries and Ice Cream
Tanya – Honey and crushed almonds
Rachael – Stewed Apples
Feel free to leave a comment with your favourite pancake topping.

My pancake topping is Treacle & Lemon juice.
Treacle and Lemon!? That’s a new one. I’m not so sure about that, John
…but I can’t knock it until I’ve tried it!
