Pancakes

I bought a pack of Aunt Bessie's frozen pancakes, but don't know what to have on/with them. I'd usually go for Lemon and Sugar, Golden Syrup or Chocolate sauce. I guess Lemon and Sweetener (Splenda) would be alright.

Does anyone ever eat them at any other time of the year? I always get the impression that they disappear from the national consciousness after Pancake Tuesday! 🙂
I sometimes have scotch pancakes instead of toast for breakfast, does that count? 😛

we used to have them quite a lot when the kids were at home. but I usually only have them once or twice a year 😱
 
Just had my first pancake of the day with my breakfast, a savoury one - ham & cheese - YUM! :D
 
Found this thread so as to get an early head start for next Shrove Tuesday. 🙂 Fortunately the friend with whom I sometimes share favours home-made ones, as opposed to shop-bought mix...

Buckwheat pancakes all the way at our house

Does one simply substitute buckwheat flour for wheat flour, or is there some trick?

Are they made with real Scotch? 😉 :D
 
I'm lucky as I can buy ready made galettes de sarrasin. (buckwheat pancakes). This thread prompted me to have one for lunch today. Local asparagus, a sprinkling of parmesan and an egg. Delicious, and for the carb concious about 18g carb.
