    I finally tried this recipe this morning, to feed post-sleepover tweens. Easy and delicious, I used frozen sliced strawberries and blueberries, didn’t make the sauce as the kids wanted maple syrup and squirty cream, and nobody should argue with hungry, tired 12 year old girls 😉

  3. I made mine with GF flour and LF milk. It turned out gelatinous. The flavours were all there, but not the texture. Where did I go wrong?!

    Ours was absolutely delicious and the lemon sauce, which I nearly didn’t do, cos you know, lazy and all, was the perfect balance to the berries. I made ours gf using the white wings gf plain flour and using lactose free milk. I can have butter, but not milk 🤷🏼‍♀️ go figure! The only thing was my berries got berried 🤣 in the batter. I also didn’t quite have enough lemons for the required lemon juice, so subbed in some of the bottled lemon juice which I have on hand for exactly that reason.

  5. Sorry but I needed to add this… I have made pancakes before but these were next level scrumptious. I made a double batch for testing and this is the last of it. There’s only two of us. Let’s say, I was surprised when we’ve both been out all day and hangry, when I gave him options, he chose the pancakes again. So quick and easy and fuss free. I love how the fruit is so lush and it brings out the best flavours. Gluten-free, dairy-free on oat milk. Corn-free using tapioca.

    These are so good. We really enjoyed this. I did the pancake in the airfryer baking tray and it worked really well.

    I made double the batter easily. Made wheat-free using gluten-free flour, and dairy-free with oat milk but other plant-based milks will work. I did the first blend for double the time. It looked adequately mixed so I didn’t bother with the 2nd.

    The strawberries were sliced but the other berries were whole. It pretty much worked. I just sprinkled them on top.

    I made the syrup corn free using tapioca, which is a 1:1 for cornflour. Usually, it’s fine for me to do that.

    I love how the berries give it a healthy balance because it’s usually just pancakes with ice-cream and maple syrup.

    This easily served 2 adults with way more than ¾ of the double lot of batter left. I think it’s great if you’re cooking for a large family or a crowd. I think it makes a great celebration day breakfast because you can put it in the oven or airfryer and do other things. Or just a lovely weekend brunch. It could easily work for camping too.
