🥞 OH CREPE! 🥞 My kids absolutely ADORE pancakes, and I make them every Sunday for a family ‘treat’ breakfast (and most mornings when it’s the school holidays 😂). What I secretly love about making pancakes is that they feel like such a treat to my boys, but they cost me pennies to make, and are made from simple ingredients that you almost always have in your home already. Plus, they’re super easy, and really customisable too! I use just 3 things for the base mixture: *eggs *plain flour *milk I don’t even weigh the ingredients. I just pop a good amount of flour in a spouted mixing bowl (easier to pour), then add the eggs and mix with a fork. Then, once it’s combined I add a few splashes of milk until the consistency is thicker than water, but still quite runny. Top tips: *Make sure the oil and pan are really hot before you start cooking *You can use just a couple of eggs, or you can use 10 eggs (like me 🤦🏼♀️). The less eggs you add, the more milk you’ll need. I add loads of eggs for the health benefits to my kids (one doesn’t touch eggs usually) *Use a fork to mix - weird, but trust me, it works! *Have a few pans on the go at a time for more speedy pancake cooking. The mixture in my pictures made approximately 10 pancakes, so you can adjust the ingredients to suit your family. What’s your favourite topping? For me, it’s lemon and sugar, but my family all prefer Nutella! We also have a debate about whether it should be rolled, or in a triangle! We also disagree about savoury toppings!
