But which kind of pancake to make?
Eh?

DIFFERENT KINDS OF PANCAKE
Being a Brit I love a good ‘ole fashioned English pancake… which I must admit is pretty much the same as the French crêpe, so much so that we probably stole the recipe from the French some time back in the day.
Talking of French pancakes, as well as the crêpe there’s also the Breton galette, which is a speciality of Brittany / Norther France, using buckwheat and usually served with a savoury topping or filling.
Oh and buckwheat is totally gluten-free, so nice for those that try to avoid gluten / are celiac.
Moving across the Atlantic ocean, there’s the American pancake, usually to be found loitering in stacks at the diner for brunch!
I could go on, but this post will be never ending….

Pick a recipe, then use it to make pancakes for Pancake Day / Shrove Tuesday / Mardi Gras... or for breakfast… or brunch… or simply because you fancy having a pancake.
