PSA for anyone doing meal planning today: Pancake Tuesday is this week, giving you the opportunity to indulge in as many pancakes as you like without anyone questioning your meal choices.
For anyone wanting the ultimate pancake challenge I have managed pancakes for all three meals one year. Sweet pancakes for breakfast, Japanese vegetable pancakes (okinomiaki) for lunch and filled savoury crepes for dinner.
I've just finished making a batch of cheese, bacon, and spring onion pikelets that ended up about three times thicker than regular pancakes, and they've already started to disappear ...
That sounds like an interesting variation. Sort of a savoury muffin pikelet?
Yeah, that's a good description. It's a variation on this recipe, based on the contents of our fridge.
