Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Day

Regular pancakes for us.

I donated 1 of my 6 to the pugs.
 
Mardi Gras - from the French. The idea was to eat up all your goodies before fasting (in Lent).
I know. I grew up not far from New Orleans and one of my uncles was a riverboat captain on the Mississippi river who had an apartment there. This may come as a shock to you, but I don't live under a rock!
 
So because my OH was away on business all of last week, pancakes were made today instead.

I have a tawa and an old griddle, so cook 2 and we eat one each before I cook the next 2.

I did a modified recipe this year because we often find we're tired and hungry the next day. So this is a mix of wholemeal for, buckwheat flour and hemp protein flour made with soy milk.

Pay way through my OH commented that they were really light and fluffy, and because I'd not scraped the container or thoroughly, went off and reheated the old griddle and made another one for himself!

I'll take that as a complement! 😆
