On Sunday night I promised Lacey I’d make her pancakes in the morning, in an attempt to urge her to go to sleep. I thought/hoped she’d forget.
By the time morning came around I’d completely forgotten about my empty promise, and it seemed Lacey had too. I made her honey on toast and put it on her little table in front of her.
“But… where’s my pancakes?”
So of course, I whipped up half a batch of pancakes for my princess and she happily gobbled them up. Here’s the recipe I love, as it never lets me down.
{All pancakes should be made whilst sporting crazy bed hair, right?}
Ingredients
2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 cup plain flour
3 tablespoons of caster sugar
2 1/3 cups milk
80g butter, melted
1 egg
Method
♥ Measure flours into a bowl {sift if you like. I don’t sift anything!}. Add sugar and stir.
♥ Add milk, butter and egg. Whisk until well combined.
♥ Brush a small frying pan with butter and put on medium heat.
♥ Add around 1/3 cup of pancake mixture to the frying pan. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the pancakes starts to bubble on the surface. Turn the pancake over and cook for another minute.
♥ Serve immediately with your topping of choice. I like lemon and sugar. Lacey is a maple syrup kinda girl.
My three have a “thing” about pancakes too. Lemon and sugar. Love.

i love a dollop of cherry jam, and sour cream with my pancakes!
This made me laugh cause my husband regularly oromises pancakes in exchange for sleep and he's always amazed they remember in the morning!
Yum! xx
Yummy yummy 🙂
On Saturday I had left over buttermilk from making scones the day before, so I made pancakes with it!…enjoyed with blueberries and maple syrup…nom nom nom
Yum! It must have been the weekend for it. We had pancakes Sunday morning. I usually like mine super sweet and sticky with maple syrup but we were out, so I had them with strawberries and honey & almond yoghurt instead. Twas delish!
She's a smart cookie. I'm a maple syrup kind of girl too. And yes, little people have memories like freaking elephants, you can't slip anything past them.
Actually I like a lil orange juice in the batter 🙂 Saw the pic on instagram and glad you shared the recipe!!
