Pancake day

[Viperama]

School have asked parents in DC year to make 400 pancakes for pancake day. I’m North American, will I be hated if I contribute with American style pancakes? I make them all the time and it’s super easy for me. Some will have blueberries and others chocolate cooked inside.
DC is allergic to dairy and egg and I’ve a good recipe to make without.
Will everyone be unimpressed???

All pancakes are good pancakes.

I am not American,but that is what I would make. Just easier.

Sounds delicious. Nice to have a bit of variety!

Make what you want, or don't make any, it is voluntary. Pretty cheeky request.

My rule is , if you’re paying me…you get to dictate terms. If you’re asking me to do it for free well then it’s dealers choice.

400!!!!!! 😳😳😳😳😳

They sound incredible. I think there'll be a variety of pancakes produced so wouldn't worry.

Dairy and egg free is funny because pancake day is traditionally the start of Lent and the point is to use up all the eggs and milk

No one will care about the style of pancake!

Sounds perfect! My husband is American and am a convert. We love them with blueberries and maple syrup on Sundays (also they travel much better, so go for it!)

Let them know about the allergy and so you will do something different, and say it is to ensure everyone can take part.

There is no such thing as an inappropriate pancake, sounds brilliant!

American pancakes are the pancake of choice in this household, I'd not be mad at you if you brought some to my door. In fact I'll PM you my address 😁

I'm leaving to google what a UK pancake looks like....

These sound much better than a British pancake, which is delicious out of the pan but quite frankly a horrible flobbly mess cold

They'll be appreciated!! Let them know you'll be bringing dairy & egg free so they can direct the kids with allergies to them

How can pancakes go cold? In my house there is a queue waiting to grab theirs and they are all eaten hot. I can't compute a cold pancake. Maybe my lot are just greedy.

Sound delicious! But 400???

Fine but why are they making so many pancakes? And how do they know the food hygiene standards of everyone's houses?

They'll go cold becuase presumably they aren't wanting 400 pancakes made on the school premises and then be served up warm immediately.

You'll be disappointed. But they taste nice.

A cold pancake is something I've never experienced. Seems criminal to me.

I'm very British but can't imagine a cold thin flabby pancake.

You will be up against Warburtons Scotch Pancakes - either in or out the pack.....depending if the parent wants to pretend they made them......or maybe that's just the school my kids go to!

What are they doing with 400 pancakes? It sounds like a massive waste unless there are 400 children and they will each eat the one they've brought in. In this case, you need to make whatever your DC can eat.

That is gross. I wouldn't want to eat food prepared in some random persons house. The children with allergies won't be able to eat them either.

We make too many (American ones) pancakes, at least twice a week and they go cold. They just get warmed up before being eaten again. I don’t kind mind cold.

OP, we always make American pancakes. I’d have made those for school without a second thought, tbh. Thank God for good options for dairy and gluten these days. The children with allergies and intolerances will be grateful.

The only time we make British ones is on that pancake day when we have them for our dinner/tea.
