Pancake Fun

Last month the lovely people at Lyles Golden Syrup arranged for a group of parent bloggers to have some Pancake Fun , me and BG couldn't go because she was poorly.

They very kindly sent me a goody bag to make my own pancakes at home, including a new frying pan!!

So on Monday me, OH and BG attempted pancakes, we have tried recipes in the past but have failed to make them perfect. Well lucky us, they also sent us a video clip of Emma Forbes (who was there on the day) cooking the perfect pancake.

You can see the video your self if you pop along to http://www.welovepancakes.co.uk/

There are 4 steps to the perfect pancake:-

STEP ONE: PREP IT 
STEP TWO: COOK IT
STEP THREE: FLIP IT
STEP FOUR: TOP IT!

You can find the full recipe and the four steps here

Ok so here are some pictures of OH cooking pancakes (yeap I made him do them, he has a great wrist action for the flip)









Looks good doesn't it?

I tried to get an action shot but my camera is pants!

BG had a little honey and banana's in hers


(Before it was assembled)

She tried them....


But to be honest she ate the banana and licked off the honey, the pancake ended up on the floor

I had banana and golden syrup in one

and banana and chocolate spread in the other


Mine ended up in my tummy!

OH has his just with a bit of lemon

The panackes were really nice and really easy to do (said OH)

Now don't forget that Pancake Day is Tuesday 16th Febuary, thats next tuesday!!

To make you life a bit easier I've had a quick surf on the internet....

Sainsbury's has 33% off selected pancake ingriedients including flour, Jiff Lemone, Lyle's golden syrup, batter mix and if you really don't have time to make them ready made pancakes

Co-Op also have some offers on pancake goodies including Jiff Lemon and batter mix

Pop along to Aldi and grab you self a bargain frying pan for £3.99 or a Pancake maker plus all you need to make them

Lastly Morrisons have some great offers, with items either £1 0r 50p!!

So have a great Pancake Day
