Tower of Pancakes

[davidn]

I hadn't realized that it was P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-Pancake Day (or if you're American, the decidedly less appetizing-sounding Fat Tuesday) until mid-afternoon yesterday, so I brought out the griddle again and demonstrated that there are some things that I can make in the kitchen without an actual adult's help.



I think my mobile phone can make even a picture of pancakes unappetizing. Nevertheless, this is the same recipe as last time, with more milk added so that the batter just distributed itself over a wider area.

Here's a question - do you spread your jam/butter/whatever you like on the first-cooked smooth side of the pancake, or on the underside so that it soaks into all the little holes?

That's a brilliant way of making a recipe for pancakes. :D

I think that my issue with the FPP may be the exact opposite of yours - I warm up the pan beforehand and don't use oil, so the pan may be too hot, and so the First Pancake absorbs too much heat too quickly, but it absorbs enough heat so that the following pancakes cook slower.
