Lemon juice and loads of sugar for me, but the occasional nutella variant gets added to the mix.

I'm a jam man. I am however unconvinced of the effort:reward ratio of pancakes.

Pancakes then arrive on a plate. Effort is minimal.

Mrs T makes a peanut butter cheesecake, it is probably my favourite thing ever.

It's pretty much this, but replace the peanut cookies with digestives for the base, as the peanut cookies don't have the right consistency (IMO)

http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1759 ... cheesecake

edit: and it is surprisingly difficult to buy peanut brittle these days, no supermarkets stock it anymore, Tesco used to a few months ago but have now stopped at my local one.

Maple syrup. If I can be arsed making them. The consequence of not being arsed is apparently being single again.

We got a pancake maker for Christmas(!) which acts like the hotplate thing you see at the Christmas markets.

Even I can make perfect pancakes each time using it, (but you can't toss them.)

Lemon juice and golden syrup. We had some a couple of weeks ago though because we couldn't wait. Not sure if we'll bother tonight. Unless I go to the shop and get some more flour...

It makes giant 15" pancakes! Goddess jasmine and Joans will have no choice but to try giant pancakes this weekend. For supper AND breakfast. I don't care if you don't like pancakes.

Effort?

Get ingredients, put in mixer, put in pan, flip, eat.

It's so easy that it used to be a regular midnight snack.

We had some flour. I've just whipped up a batch of pancake batter. Took five minutes! Transferred it to a measuring jug and put it in the fridge for tonight. AWWW YEAHHHHHHHH.

We've tended to have american style pancakes recently. More filling, less cakes per mix. Soak up a lot of syrup. Yum.

This is Craster we're talking about....I can only imagine what the fuck his pancakes involve. He probably grinds the flour himself from the wishbones of 40 golden geese and milks a unicorn or something.

Hell's Bells makes the best pancakes ever. Morello cherry pie filling and a small lump of ice cream.

Supermarket had run out of flour! :D

Mrs T bought pre-made pancake batter, which will save us precious minutes, instead.

I thought that for a while. Then I looked into it further and despite what TV tells us, they do appear to eat a lot of what we would normally call gravy. In the South, 'gravy' is effectively a bechamel but using meat fats for the roux rather than butter.

Pretty much, but comes in liquid form. I assume it has milk and eggs in it too...

Add to that the Italian Americans and their insistence on pasta sauce being called gravy, and there is potential for disaster!

I'm going through "Man Vs Food" at the moment, some of the gravies on there look disgusting.

Three course pancake dinner!

Blinis with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and spring onion

Image

Mad props to Danielle for these, who not only did the arranging (I made the blinis but that's the easy bit), but also had the idea of piping the cream cheese through her cookie pump thing.

Galette complète with a salad of bacon, avodaco, goat's cheese, and balsamic dressing

Image

Crêpe with vanilla ice cream and homemade blueberry syrup:

Image

Plated by Danielle (who's way better at this than me).

Veg chilli and cheese. Which was the bestest and hottest chilli in the world.
