Pancakes for tea or a dessert

[FoofFighter]

Settle a minor major! disagreement please.

Is it acceptable to have pancakes only as the main meal tomorrow night or should it be a main meal then pancakes as dessert?

Whichever has the most votes for we will do I am cooking and will do whatever I want anyway

Sorry, I should have said “in my 3-litre mixing bowl”. I’ve done 3 eggs, 400g flour, 3 tablespoons sunflower oil, a pinch of salt and a litre of whole milk.
It’s resting before the onslaught now.

I had been wondering how many you were feeding with 3 litres of milk!

Is the oil in the mix essential? I have been making pancakes for eons and never put oil in the batter.

Broke with tradition as it's half term so more time. We had them for breakfast but usually dessert.

Never put oil in either! Flour, milk and eggs is all. I frye din a little coconut oil today. Was V good as it can get hot without burning and has a nice flavour that can be savoury or sweet.

Oil in the batter is my nod to the French idea of using melted butter in crêpes. Plenty of Nutella but no butter chez Major, I’m afraid!

They all got eaten, anyway.

Well just eaten inhaled 4 and def got over my pancake craving now! I make crêpes though so melted butter and cornflour get a look in this end

I'm over pancaked.

One with traditional lemon and sugar, and one with icecream and dark chocolate. Only had two. Very restrained.

Love the phrase, ‘over pancaked’.

We just have them at breakfast (scotch pancakes)

Dp is cooking them tonight, only had one lemon and sugar one so far, but really fancy a bacon and syrup one after reading this thread. Wondering if I can convince him to do me some bacon.

I have never in my life had pancakes for a main meal at dinner time but then I don't eat the flabby thin ones and have scotch pancakes instead

Both. Quietly celebrating as managed to get OH to make them and have sneakily scoffed 3, 2 with vegan cheese, 1 with lemon juice. Luckily, I have my elasticated trousers aka fat pants on

How can something be both flabby and thin?

both?

DS made his own for lunch, then we all had them for main meal and dessert this evening.

I was very pleased as I also made vegan pancakes for DD that turned out really well.

We had ours as a starter haha

We had proper pancakes with maple syrup for breakfast
Duck with wafer thin Chinese rice pancakes for dinner with salad, so theyweren't too carby and didn't fill us up. Leaving room for
home made scotch pancakes with pear for dessert.

But we are doing proper sugar free, snack free Lent from tomorrow

Pancakes are dessert!

Lemon and sugar
Cherry pie filling and squirty cream
Banana and cinnamon

Why am I not a size 10?

According to my kids they should be eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner on Pancake day! They like them with cheese in so we usually do that for lunch and then sweet ones for pudding. But we eat them quite often even when not pancake day.

I had sweet pancakes as a main meal! Always have, always will.
No way am i cooking a main and then making pancakes too!
