  6. Cook as normal.

  7. Serve with either a glaze made by mixing some icing sugar with some milk or a soft cheese topping (mix soft cheese with milk and icing sugar)

Recipe Notes

If you try to add the syrup to early it doesnt swirl into the pancake.

These pancakes can be frozen and either defrosted or put into a toaster frozen to reheat.
