Pancake Day

My wife found a few limes in the market (18 pence):

Whey pancakes with stuffed with yoghurt and blueberries for breakfast, two for me and one for the mutt, and six pancakes in the fridge ready for tonight :roflmao:

I used 1 mug of flour, 1 mug of whey, a pinch of bicarb, 1 tbsp olive oil, and 1 large egg, and whisked everything together. The pancakes are thicker than traditional English ones, so I made three and then added a drop more whey to the mix for the thinner English pancakes. There is no need to leave to stand. The mixture does not keep well, so I cook all the pancakes together. They reheat well. They also freeze well, and there is no need to thaw them out - just put them in a pan and reheat one at a time.

So you had whey... what did you make to produce the whey? Paneer?
 
My grandson and I had great fun yesterday. I must say I'm not keen on his idea of having Nutella on them. I had my plain with sugar and lemon.
 
English pancakes here every time.
Our recipe is slightly different. 4Oz self raising flour, 2 eggs, 1/2 pt milk (non dairy for me), 1dsp caster sugar, 1dsp ice cold water. Easy instructions, all in liquidiser and mix. Allow to stand minimum 1he.
We usually double that for 2 as a main meal and they are cooked as we eat them. Lemon (or lime) and sugar is the only option.

I'm surprised at putting sugar in them - especially if you are adding sugar afterwards. To me, the nice part is the lack of sweet pancake contrasted with lemon and a little sugar crunch. In my case very little!

It's not much sugar and we often only apply lemon juice once cooked. It's my grannie's recipe which I have used for years. 1dessertspoon per 1/2 pt of unsweetened Almond milk... Not much really
