Hi nickinoodle

It's dead easy: 2 eggs, 1/2 pint of milk, 4oz Plain Flour.
Mix it altogther and pop in a frying pan.

You can also use this for yummy yorkshire puddings.

keep it simple is my motto.....

4oz plain flour
1 egg
scant half pint milk..

flour in bowl make a well and put in egg
beat with half milk then add rest of milk
slowly beating... voila... yummy

I always like to serve with sugar and lemon
but thats just my preference.... simple...

Hi Snoopy,
How many pancakes does this make (I know it depends on the size of the frying pan)?

TIA

Sorry nickinoodle, I keep posting on your thread!

Can I use a handmixer to mix it together or is it best to do it with a wooden spoon?

Hi
I get around 9 pancakes out of that (but then again i'm very liberal with the amount i use) and if everyone doesn't have the same amount it can cause WW3!!!

I agree with just having lemon and sugar on them YYYYYUUUMMMMYYY!!!

(I use my handmixer as it seems to make a wonderfully fluffy mixture)

Just read in the paper that the first pancake always turns out a bit rubbish. Was a real relief cos that always happens me Just for info.

BTW Tesco are doing a 400g jar of nutella for only £1.05 at the mo. Bought it Saturday. There's only a little scraping left for the pancakes tomorrow :eek:

Tescos doing bogof on the flour and the greens pre mixed, I bought the flour to make my own and the pre mix incase disaster strikes :rotfl: oh and I am using the choccy sauce from the pre mix regardless :rolleyes:
