10 Sweet & Savoury Pancake Recipes

Pancakes are far too tasty to save for Shrove Tuesday – these deliciously different recipes and ideas will serve you well all year round

6 WAYS TO MAKE YOUR PANCAKES EXTRA SPECIAL

*Allowing the batter to rest in the fridge for half an hour will give you a more evenly textured pancake

*Why not swap regular hen eggs for richer duck eggs? As a rule of thumb, use one large duck egg for every two medium hen eggs

*For extra decadent pancakes, add a tablespoon of melted butter to your batter

*Add an extra fruity kick to sweet pancakes by adding grated lime, lemon or orange zest to the mix

*Likewise, slithers of ham, chorizo or grated cheese work brilliantly in savoury pancakes

*For a real show-stopper, pile your pancakes high Jamie Oliver-style and decorate your crepe layer cake with all kinds of fillings and toppings
