notes

• You might need to adjust the temperature of your hot plate, either up or down, depending on how well the pancakes are cooking.
• Serve with sliced banana and maple syrup or berries and cream.
• For a healthier serving suggestion, you can serve with fresh fruit and yoghurt.
• Sprinkle freshly cooked pancakes with fresh lemon juice and a dusting of caster sugar.
• Maple syrup is always a favourite to serve with pancakes, but our Managing Editor’s favourite are these orange syrup pancakes.
• If you prefer a slightly fluffier pancake, some people swear you need buttermilk, which apparently traps air bubbles more effectively.
• If your family is adventurous, try Kidspot’s 2-ingredient pancakes. Some families swear by them, while others express disdain at the idea of eggs mixed with mashed banana.
• Chocoholics can delight in our chocolate pancake recipe, or even tempt themselves with a choc chip pancake recipe.
• If your household loves pancakes every weekend, make up this bulk pancake recipe, which will keep in an airtight container for up to three months.
• This caramel banana recipe is a delicious accompaniment to any batch of pancakes, as is this peaches and custard topping.
• Wholemeal apple pancakes or berry pancakes with yoghurt are a great way to add a dash of nutrtitious fruit to a weekend treat breakfast. And don’t forget blueberry pancakes. Yum!
• Red velvet pancakes are a nice twist on plain ol’ pancakes – try serving these for Valentine’s Day or just to show your family how much you love them.
