Truly Scrumptious

Delicious recipes and jottings by AIF reproduced from The Donhead Digest.

Pancakes are not complex but classic to make and the end result always
delicious, they can also be whisked up in a sensible amount of time. For sweet or savoury, mixing poppy seeds or fresh herbs into the batter gives a lovely flavour and crunch (but not an attractive look if you get either of them stuck in your front teeth). In experimenting with this month’s recipe, which is perfect for Easter weekend, I found it took longer to cook a pancake (all of about 90 seconds!) than it did to eat one with lemon and sugar and I must have eaten at least four before disciplining myself and start stacking them as they came off the production line, ready to try this new recipe.
