Shrove Tuesday will be upon us next week, do you have any flippin’ plans? If you want to try making more than your usual stack, these are 6 of our favourite pancake recipes:

Ffroes

Pronounced ‘froies’, this is a simple Welsh recipe, made on a traditional stone. Eat them warm, smeared with butter and sprinkled with sugar.

Buttermilk pancakes with chocolate mascarpone, hazelnuts, raspberries and whipped cream

Light and airy and stacked sky high! Use whatever fresh fruit and nuts that take your fancy – strawberries, blueberries… almonds, cashews. The combinations are endless.

Cinnamon pancakes with caramelised bananas

Probably my favourite way to eat them – bananas tossed in a hot, sweet fudgy sauce between layers of spiced pancakes. Serve with a side of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Sourdough pancakes

These can be sweet or savoury… vegetarian or carnivore. The sour taste works really well with a generous drizzle of maple syrup.

Buttermilk pancakes with blueberries and maple syrup

Like sourdough, buttermilk makes your pancakes light, fluffy and tangy. It’s all in the chemical reaction between the acid and alkaline ingredients… it’s science!

Jiucai you bing

For those of you that are more savoury than sweet, this is the pancake recipe for you. Jiucai you bing are eaten for breakfast in China. Just make sure you drizzle them with soy sauce instead of honey and lemon!

What’s your topping of choice on your pancakes?
