I'm going traditional all the way, a sultana's, sprinkle of sugar with a squirt of fresh lemon on mine...

And after looking at the ingredients in a pre-mixed pancake, I do my normal scratch mixture..

The one my daughter brought home, had thing like Glucose syrup in it, Lactose syrup amongst other ingredients..

the mix i make is just eggs and flour and milk so there are carbs in the egg but i don't add sugar to my mix so in itself it aint too bad... spread the jam thin and it wont be too big a problem i don't think

Flour and milk have carbs though! 😉

yep don't know why i wrote egg i meant "carbs in that".... oops its been a long day.... i normally take my normal amount of tea time insulin when i have pancakes and it seems to work ok for me to swap a few sarnies for a few pancakes...... everyone is different tho

Hehe! Just thought I'd better clarify for anyone reading 🙂 I don't think I've had pancakes since I was diagnosed. We always used to have treacle on them when I was a kid, not sure that would be a good idea now! 😱

Mmm I make pancakes quite a lot as my kids love them - either drop scones (scotch pancakes) or the big proper crepe type.

I adore them too but used to always have syrup/maple syrup Lemon and sweetener would still be ok though I think.

Not having them tonight anyway I don't think as wont have much time - will maybe do them at the weekend instead. Think it's the first pancake day I haven't bothered! 😱
