Grey-gear Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Just wondering if anyone else will be making pancakes this evening or if they already had some?
abillybob Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 The girlfriend is making me some home made one's tonight 1
foofighterjim Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Had some at 11, making more when I get home! 1
Norphy Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 The girlfriend is making me some home made one's tonight ... Is there anyone who doesn't make home-made pancakes? There have four ingredients: Egg, Flour, Milk and a pinch of salt. Who the hell buys shop bought pancakes??? 3

Who the hell buys shop bought pancakes??? I can only guess people that have had a long day or do not have a kitchen.

Who the hell buys shop bought pancakes??? Me! They're cheap and save a load of mess/tidying up and only a few seconds in the microwave. 1
elsiegee40 Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 4oz flour, half pint of milk, 1 egg. Beat together. Easy peasy. Pancakes being made here tonight 1
JoeBloggs Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 45 seconds in micro - job done and perfect every time! honey or lemon curd! 1
DalekSec Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Had some for lunch, bit rubbery! Going to have some when I get home also! 1
rich_tech Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 I tried shop bought the weekend for the novelty of it, though today I am making them from scratch, much nicer than shop bought. Tried them with Nutella also, would not recommend, it was the most sickly thing I have ever eaten after two of them it was like having a mouthful of glue. 1
sidewinder Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Seriously, shop bought pancakes? It's 4 ingredients, mixed and poured into a pan for 30 seconds. There is no-one on earth who cannot make that. I thought the pre mixed batter was bad enough!
Mark_Norton Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Working till 8:30 tonight so pancake day is being held tomorrow for me. 1
caffrey Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 I was going to have some, but came home to baked potato and chicken kievs... Wouldn't care I called in the shops on the way home for the ingredients, oh well 1

DJ-1701 Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 I completely forgot it was Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day, even though one of the kids said to me that she made pancakes and got to eat them, I didn't put two and two together. It was only on the way home when I listened to the radio that I found out... Derp 1
Grey-gear Posted February 10, 2016 Author Posted February 10, 2016 Well here is how mine turned out last night 2
rich_tech Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 I would post a picture of the ones that my wife made, but they didn't stay on the plates long enough to be photographed here Lovely in fairness, one of my favourite deserts 2
elsiegee40 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 As is tradition in the gee40 household, I made a pint of batter and put a couple of pans on the hob then everyone cooked their own pancakes. The youngest, at university, made a dutch style savoury pancake for his dinner and then sweet pancakes for dessert. I'm impressed with his cooking The size of his appetite is no surprise 3
Duranis Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 We had the mother in law round and had pancakes for dinner. The Mrs got in a TON of toppings (from ice cream to marshmallow and chocolate spread), surprisingly both the boys stuck with the orange and lemon juice. Only downside to pancakes is that I have to cook them and only have 1 decent pancake pan. By the time everyone else is full (takes awhile with 2 growing boys) and I get to cook some for myself I'm normally starving. My sister in law always buys the pre-made batter. No idea why, you don't even need to measure the ingredients, break a few eggs in a bowl, splash of milk and then add plain flour until it is whatever thickness you want. Then again this is also the woman who once phoned us to ask how long a vienetta ice cream needs to defrost for (my Mrs wouldn't let me tell her to put it in the microwave for 2 minutes ). 2
sted Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 ... Is there anyone who doesn't make home-made pancakes? There have four ingredients: Egg, Flour, Milk and a pinch of salt. Who the hell buys shop bought pancakes??? i diddnt do any but as a general rule out of those 4 ingredients i have salt so if im going to have to buy flour eggs and milk may as well but pre made mixture 1
Willott Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Shed loads of pancakes made last night for our house group, started savoury (cheese and bacon), then moved to part savoury (maple syrup and bacon), then onto various other toppings... the "interesting" flavour choice of the evening... after eight mints... 1

I like the idea of an After Eight Mint pancake :-) Might try that next time. We had all sorts of combinations....lemon & Sugar, chocolate spread with strawberries and cream, ice cream (with lemon & Sugar), chocolate spread & banana....I love pancake day :-) 1

Who the hell buys shop bought pancakes??? Me, what of it? I was late, it was my daughters bedtime, I stopped at Sainsburys and grabbed a packet of ready made and they were flippin' 'ansom! 2
dry Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 So for those that weren't aware, it was Safer Internet Day yesterday. Asked my code club today who knew what special day it was yesterday.... Take a wild guess what the response was! It wouldn't be as annoying had they said 'Shrove Tuesday', but nope, "PANCAKE DAY!!!" was screamed by 15 excited kids. 2
