The simple French tradition that harps back to infant days and begins our journey. The thin runny batter that ultimately scrambles the first time because of childhood impatience, but is soon guided by a mother&#8217;s skilful hand, to&nbsp;create piles of soft cakes, whose edges were slightly crispy. Swiftly adorned with spoonfuls of sugar, lashing of lemon juice and handfuls of raisins, these sheets of &nbsp;batter would be rolled up into a cigar, and eaten rather animalistically with the hands, as if it were a meal deal wrap. Blessed were the days in which a jar of nutella would be available for Pancake Day, for ladles of the sticky chocolate would be lathered onto the thin bases until they could no longer be tasted. No fruit. Just chocolate. Just pure childhood dreams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drop pancakes. My nostalgia. A family recipe that only exists within the four walls of my home sweet home. Doughy circles of sweet batter, studded with raisins, that free the pancake from the prison of a plate for the best after-school snack in the back of the car. Never lasting more than a day within the Hollingshurst household, the drops were also never adorned with toppings, for its perfection cannot be improved. They were a simple solution to the 364 days that are not dedicated to Pancakes and a simple treat that shows motherly love.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The American. The pancake that reminds me all to clearly of a weekend of cub-scout camping and pre-teen years that have gone by. Packet mixture gloop-iness cooked over a gas canister making an ultimate smell of burnt batter, paraffin and wet grass. A dry pillow that would be drowned in maple syrup to become a palatable breakfast that was certified to wake any child after a restless night sleeping in a tent. The American was enviably a parcel for whatever form of sugar the monster within me&nbsp;wanted to inhale.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The banana? The conclusive chapter of my&nbsp;tale tells us of a banana pancake that is bejewelled with blueberries that would become little explosions of sweetness in a thick chewy pancake that is a very distant cousin to the american. With more texture and flavour, they become the perfect vessels for a sophisticated topping of yogurt, honey, blueberries and pecans. Such a combination accumulates in a symphony of flavours that&#8217;s sweet, savoury and mellow at the same time. The ultimate recipe for brunch, but it just about fits any other occasion as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Blueberry Banana Pancakes&nbsp;Ingredients: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>240g self-raising flour&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>170ml milk&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 banana&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 egg&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blueberries&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Method:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mash and mix all the ingredients in a bowl.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heat a frying pan on a medium heat, add a little butter to stop the batter sticking.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spoon batter into the pan and while raw, top with the blueberries.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook on both sided until golden and remove from the pan.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat until all the batter is used up.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Serve with dollops of yogurt, more blueberries, some broken pecans and honey for an ultimate treat \u2013 but don\u2019t be afraid to try out other toppings as well.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Words by Ellen Hollingshurst&nbsp;<\/em>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/a_bakingmess\/\">@a_bakingmess<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oma\u2019s Pannekoeken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Netherlands, pancakes are a year-round enjoyment and a staple of the Dutch cuisine &#8211; <em>Pannekoeken <\/em>being their Dutch name. Similar to crepes in their appearance but, at risk of losing my passport, I should stress they are NOT the same. Nor are they the \u201cmini-Dutch pancakes\u201d often sold at Winter Wonderland stalls. P<em>annenkoeken <\/em>are slightly thicker and larger in diameter then crepes and there is no limit as to what can go on a p<em>annenkoek.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My all-time favourite topping is another Dutch classic \u2013 <em>Schenkstroop<\/em>. It\u2019s almost impossible to source in the UK so if you ever visit the Netherlands do yourself a favour and grab a bottle. <em>Schenkstroop<\/em> is a rich caramel syrup, dark brown in colour, and with a sweet but not sickening flavour. And it is not exclusive to p<em>annenkoeken, y<\/em>ou can even put <em>Schenkstroop<\/em> on ice cream or baked goods as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During my time at university, I have cooked p<em>annenkoeken <\/em>using my Oma\u2019s (grandma) recipe for housemates and friends. I take the opportunity to teach them about the associations the cozy dish has, and how families bond over their traditional toppings and recipe. Whilst most family recipes are the same, the distinctions are important and belong to them uniquely with this shared Dutch nostalgia.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Ingredients (serves 2):<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>130g plain flour&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>130g self raising flour&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>500ml milk&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3 eggs&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Method:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sift both types of flour into a bowl and pour in your milk, mix till it is evenly combined.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crack your eggs in and mix thoroughly to form a smooth batter with no lumps.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heat a frying pan and apply a bit of butter to stop sticking.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scoop a spoonful of the batter into the pan, you want enough batter in the pan to form a thin-ish layer covering the whole pan.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook on each side until golden.

Such a taste stems from my childhood when my mum used to make huge fluffy American pancakes-sweetcorn fritter hybrids, served with fried chicken, maple syrup and bacon on pancake day. So now, every time I get the opportunity to indulge in something so reminiscent, I jump at the opportunity because in one bite, I\u2019m transported back to my childhood.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can only hope that as time passes, I&#8217;ll continue to savour the childlike whimsy of Pancake Days\u2014hands sticky with syrup, more flour on the floor than in the bowl, and, if done right, being so contentedly full afterwards that you won&#8217;t want pancakes again until next year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve tried several different American pancake recipes in hopes of replicating the pancakes I remember so fondly. Therefore, this recipe is a result of years of experimenting, but in my experience, has never failed me:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Ingredients<\/span>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>300g Self Raising Flour&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 Eggs&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pinch of Salt&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30g Sugar&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>30g of Butter (and extra to fry)&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>150-200ml milk&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Method:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Melt butter and allow to cool.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Combine your dry ingredients in a bowl.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Combine your wet ingredients in a separate bowl and then add to the dry mixture.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whisk and add enough milk to make a batter similar consistency to custard.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heat a pan to medium\/high, them place a small amount of butter in a pan and let it melt.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add some batter and fry until golden brown on both sides and cooked in the middle.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remove and repeat until all the batter is used up.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Serve with your favourite toppings and enjoy.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Words by Phoebe Essex (<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fee.essex\/\">@ fee.essex<\/a><em>)&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An ode to pancakes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Crepe pancakes.
