If there is any advice that I can give you when it comes to making pancakes, it is - Stick to what you know.
Or like myself you could be seriously jeopardizing your relationship. I have given up trying to get creative with pancakes as it has often resulted in a mound of soggy ingredients, 10 banana skins and a near break up. Proof here.
You can try to make your pancakes vegan, vegetarian, gluten, wheat and dairy free BUT nothing can compare to a plain and simple FLOURY disk of deliciousness.
After many disastrous attempts, this year I left it to the man. I was in charge of toppings, tea and eating them. (I think I did a pretty good job)
But I did keep a close eye and wrote every snippet down for safe keeping.
For these little, fluffy fellas you will need:

For these little, fluffy fellas you will need:
- 2 eggs
- 1 & 1/2 mugs of flour
- 1 mug of milk
- Coconut oil for cooking
- BACON
- A lot of other scrummy toppings
How to:
- Start by grilling your most important ingredient - Bacon.
- Crack your 2 eggs into the blender
- Add 1 mug of flour and 1 mug of milk - Give it a whirl.
- It shouldn't be too watery, so we added another 1/2 mug of flour so the consistancy is quite thick.
- Add your coconut oil to the pan and put it on a high heat to begin with. Let it melt and then pour in your mixture to make a small circle in the middle of the pan. Cook on one side until it looks like there are little bubbles then FLIP.
- Do the same on the other side then flip right into an oven proof dish and put it in the bottom of the oven to keep warm.
- Continue with the rest of the mixture - this should be timed perfectly with your bacon being cooked. Then for the best bit. Tucking in.
- Pour your tea and eat until your heart is content.
This years winning toppings:
The Collective Morello Cherry Yogurt with a hint or Kirsch.
Meridian Peanut butter and strawberries (obviously)
Bacon, honey and lemon.
There you have it, hope you have a flippin' marvellous Pancake Day!
