You shouldn’t use oil. Warm the pan and then wipe it with a piece of margarine on a fork before each pancake. I use a basic recipe - 100g flour, pinch of salt, 1 egg and half a pint of milk. Works every time. This mixture makes 6-8 pancakes.

I use a lovely crepe pan I bought in France it’s perfect and cooks them just right? youcan purchase them too from Lakeland. I use almond milk instead of cows milk and lime instead of lemon but I like my pancakes with just lime and sugar none of the chocolate, cream etc that others favour although for DGS I put on Nutella or maple syrup?

Try putting less mixture in the pan and tilt the pan till it covers all over.

My pancakes were a bit of a disaster.
I used a recipe from the bero cookery book as normal. I used oil as normal. I started off with a medium frying pan then swopped to a small frying pan, that did improve them. I also swopped to the smaller gas ring but had on a high setting. They didnt seem to cook well in the centre.
How did you cook your pancakes?
I want to try again.
