We've got a basic pancakes recipe, but you may want to do something even more tantalising. Here's the recipe for you.
You can vary the recipe hugely with different fruit, and even use pumpkin or squash puree.
For savoury versions how about mixing in chopped fresh herbs and black pepper, serving with houmous or soup and salad for an exciting starter or light meal?
