Pancakes

Whilst planning the week ahead for meals with Tuesday being Shrove Tuesday it's pancake time....

Everytime however that my OH and I make them they come out lumpy....Can you use an electric whisk to make them now we have one? My mum insists on beating it with a fork....

Any useful tips or a fool proof recipe..?

Thanks in advance

    I use an empty milk container and give it a good shake, very smoothy, quick and easy and full of air! :-) Enjoy!

    When you add the milk, add it bit by bit and make sure that each time it's added, it's mixed until there are no lumps. I use a fork too.

    Man plans and God laughs...
    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

    Hadn't thought of that one, makes sense really when the shake and bake ones are like that....thanks

    Thanks think we'll either use an old milk carton or the whisk then...can't afford to start all over again if it goes wrong this year...
