We have pancakes all year but like to do it differently on pancake day

I've recently purchased a pancake maker so that can be on the table with all the dishes of toppings in bowls.

Have ordered some pancake shaped moulds too for the kids

Toppings I have so far

Nutella
Syrup
Lemon
Sugar
Strawberry sauce
Choc sauce
Marshamallows.
Choc chips ( the 3 year olds request?)
Jam (the 3 Yr olds request too)

Unsure whether to get maple Syrup I'm the only one that eats that so likely to go to waste as its not too of my list.

Yes the kids are on a sugar high on pancake day but hey ho. Haha (ill prob regret that come Tuesday)

Nutella, strawberry and squirty cream. Though I am very fond of just golden syrup

Maple-butter sauce. Half maple syrup and half melted butter mixed together.

We eat it over American style, buttermilk pancakes with streaky bacon on the side.

I like one with mushrooms and creamy white wine sauce. Or egg, ham and cheese.

Lemon & sugar or sometimes a I'll have lime & sugar for a change.

SpikeDearheart · 08/02/2021 22:16

Sliced mango and mascarpone. Delicious!

Baxter's Passionfruit curd with vanilla ice cream is amazing

JayAlfredPrufrock · 08/02/2021 22:20

Baxter’s Passionfruit Curd???? What exquisite thing is this?

Quaagars · 08/02/2021 22:21

I'm traditional, I like either jam or lemon juice and sugar!
Kids sometimes have chocolate spread ones as well
Keep meaning to "go savoury" every year as well and not getting around to it lol

Gingerkittykat · 08/02/2021 22:36

Gordon Ramsey's caramelised bananas with rum with cream on top. It probably has about a zillion calories but it is amazing.

BirdyBee · 08/02/2021 22:55

Chopped up pear and stilton cheese or just as its cooked wrapping kinder bars up in it so they just start to melt!

SnowyBranches · 08/02/2021 22:58

It has always been DS’s dream to eat nothing but pancakes on pancake day, so I hope to make that dream come true this year, as usually school gets in the way - am gathering ideas for sweet and savoury from this thread!

howmanyroads · 08/02/2021 23:08

Crepes with melted white chocolate, strawberries and broken up Kinder Bueno

SmellsLikeAHamsterCage · 08/02/2021 23:38

Lemon and sugar is the best

But a close second is

Fried bananas with caramel sauce (Tesco finest salted caramel jar is good) and squirty cream (or Kelly's Cornish ice cream). Make sure bananas and pancakes are very hot before adding cream or ice cream.

ifitpleasesandsparkles · 09/02/2021 00:04

White choc chips
Raspberries
Whipped cream or clotted cream

My favourite is crepes with lemon and sugar or fluffy American pancakes with maple syrup.

Mumski45 · 09/02/2021 00:20

My favourite is one I first had in Holland which was cheese honey and walnuts. I can't remember which sort of cheese I had originally but have used whatever I have to hand.

ThePug · 09/02/2021 07:15

I did chocolate spread and chopped up some cherries in one a few weeks ago and it was like a delicious Black Forest pancake - so I'll be doing that again next week!

Deathraystare · 09/02/2021 11:22

Oh I couldn't wait so have already indulged!

I am a classic lemon and sugar girl.

Yes i have bought more!!!

BlackeyedSusan · 09/02/2021 11:34

sugar and vinegar.

youngestisapsycho · 09/02/2021 11:41

Crispy smoked streaky bacon broken into bits and cooked in the pancake batter, then lots of maple syrup and extra bacon.... Mmmm
