Pancake batter recipes
First timer? If you’re here looking for a classic pancake batter mix, then start with our easy pancake recipe.
Or, let us tempt you to try something new. Pancakes are usually a basic mix of white flour, eggs, milk and sometimes butter or vegetable oil. But there are alternatives that use different ingredients such as wholemeal flour (often a ‘galette’ from the French pancake usually served as a savoury main), chickpea flour or include ingredients such as banana, coconut, vanilla or cinnamon. You can even make them dairy-free.
Turn pancakes into a meal with our savoury pancakes recipe ideas.
