Pancake day (gluten free pancakes)

It was Pancake day Yesterday! and I got to make pancakes! There has already been a lot of debate/discussion about the best pancake topping and I have seriously struggled to pick witch one i like most...so we decided we were going to try a bit of everything! ...(plus I am finally better enough to be allowed back to the gym this week, so I justified one last blow out to my self!)

One thing is certain tho, I am gluten intolerant so these pancakes are going to be gluten free! these aren't really any different to normal pancakes except for the fact that I will be using gluten free flour instead of the normal stuff! and I can't really tell the difference anymore! (I actually don't think anybody else noticed either!)

Gluten free Pancake recipe:

8oz plain gluten free flour
8 eggs
1 pint of milk
oil for frying!

..........We also got a bit carried away and added chocolate chips, marshmallows and sprinkles to some of our pancakes whilst they were cooking! :)





Make sure you have something you can use as a unit of measure for each pancake, we decided in the end that about half a small cup full was pretty perfect!





 Someone got a bit carried away tossing pancakes...but only a little bit of one ended up on the floor! ;)






I had one attempt, and managed it, but decided to quit whilst I was ahead and leave it to the experts ;)


This year we decided to shun the classic lemon and sugar in favor of some slightly more unhealthy options!....we may have got a bit carried away. 



In the end I was so full (snacking on all of the marshmallows and chocolate during the cooking process) that I only managed to eat one pancake!...shocking i know! :(

But i still have loads of ingredients left so i could probably live on pancakes for the rest of the week, and I was especially disappointed that i didn't get to recreate pancakes with bacon and maple syrup..(mainly because i could not find maple syrup anywhere!) so that definitely has to happen soon!

I hope everyone had a very lovely pancake day! :)
