Came into this section thinking for sure there would be pancake recipes. and there is, but for fluffy pancakes.

I want the flat type, that I can put my lemon and sugar on. I don't want the fluffy hot cake/pikelet style ones.

So what is the recipe and method to getting flat pancakes?

Thanks!

Use plain flour & a slightly runnier batter so a smidge more milk

due to today being pancake day flat pancakes are 1 cup of flour a pinch of salt 1 egg and milk to make it running. I am cooking our fav desert chocolate picklets which is SR flour coco egg milk and sugar, taste the mixture to make sure you have enough sugar, My kids who are now teenagers love this plain with jam or even ice cream happy flipping all who are making pancakes tonight

I haven't made them for years because DH only likes the fluffy kind so I don't have an exact recipe sorry.

You want crepes.

From memory my proportions are cup four, pinch salt, 1 egg and 1 1/4 cups milk. Rest for 20-30 minutes.

1 cup plain flour, 1-1.5 cups of milk (depending on how thin you want them), 1 egg. Pinch of salt, pinch of sugar. Yum - this will be dinner tonight (didn't get up early enough to have them for breakfast!).

2 eggs lightly beaten
400ml water
500ml milk
3 cups flour
Sugar to taste

Combine, rest half hour.

I use 1 cup flour, 1 egg, a tablespoon of melted butter and just over 1 cup of milk. I probably use about 1 1/4 cup milk for crepes, but I don't measure it thanks to having done them often enough that I now measure by sight.

Pancakes are a popular dish in our house, we have the fluffy ones at least once a week for breakfast and crepes make an appearance at least once a month. Because the kids are guaranteed to eat them I've lately started making a double batch at breakfast and having savoury pancakes for dinner the same night

i ended up googling and used this one.

180 g flour
2 eggs
a pinch of salt
1 tbsp sugar
200 ml milk
75 ml water
30 g melted butter
some extra butter, for frying

1 lemon, halved

kids loved them, need to double the mixture at least!! I did and my 4 kids ate them all :)

we make crepes too, but they are different to pancakes.
