So glad to hear you enjoyed them!

Glad you enjoyed!

Glad to hear these came out well for you. I, too, as a Brit grew up with just having these for Shrove Tuesday and not really any other time. And yes, always the lemon and sugar (though I know some friends would sometimes have jam).

Great, glad to hear you enjoyed! And definitely, it can be fun to try different toppings too.

I'm afraid I'd respectfully disagree. There is more than one way to make them but this proportion is relatively typical. Adding an additional 1/2 cup liquid is closer to crepe consistency rather than British pancake (and as I mention above, I am British and grew up eating these).

The flour to milk ratio isn't right on this. You'll want 1/4 - 1/2 cups more milk to get it authentic.

So glad you enjoyed them, and love that you enjoyed the lemon and sugar too - it's simple but tasty and for me, brings back childhood memories.

Dear Caroline, your recipe is perfect! Made them for breakfast this morning and absolutely loved the taste. By the way, I tried that filling of lemon juice and caster sugar, and it quickly became my new favorite. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Greetings from the rainy Rijeka, Croatia! 🙂

Well now you know! Yes, I can definitely understand some wanting to just use milk and have updated the recipe having tried both ways and based on reader feedback. I agree, resting helps lead to a smoother pancake and so have updated to make this clearer a little longer can help.

Yes, you can certainly add some additional milk if you prefer. The water is partly to make it lighter (some use semi-skimmed/part-skimmed milk rather than whole milk).

Yes they do, they are generally smaller though.

So glad to hear you have been enjoying, and can imagine those swaps works well too.

Thanks, glad to hear you enjoyed!

Sorry to hear they didn't work out for you but it's something that is easy enough to fix. If you used cups rather than weight measure, then the amount of flour can vary and so would make the batter thicker if you use more. Also, I always use large eggs so if yours were smaller, this would also lead to a thicker dough. Flours can also vary in how much they absorb - unfortunately even with a few ingredients, there can be a few variables. Either way, as I say this is easily resolved - if the batter seems a little too thick, just add a little bit more milk and stir it in. I will update the notes in the recipe to help others in case they are also unaware of this way to resolve.

Hope you give them a try, they're delicious!

We're big pancake fans too, these are so easy and tasty.
