Lemon with sugar is completely new to me, as is the marmite, and I've never seen either on a menu. I'll have to try each!
The standard here is plain with maple, or sometimes blueberry, boysenberry, or strawberry (more unusual) syrup.
I often cook mine with blueberries, bananas, or pecans in the batter, and sometimes the kids over here like them with chocolate chips.
My favorite recipe has bananas in the batter with sliced bananas and slightly toasted coconut, pecans, and brown sugar.

Re: pancakes
I didnŽt think about it being pancake day either, but all this talk of lemon and sugar made me fancy some, so IŽve nipped into the garden and picked a couple of lemons and weŽll have pancakes later. I donŽt think weŽll bother with the veggie mice though, they are in very short supply around here.

I was thinking about our version of pancakes that are thicker and traditionally served as a breakfast entree.
Crips, chips, biscuits, cookies, pancakes, crepes....
Sometimes I forget that I am speaking a foreign language over here
.I still haven't tried crepes/pancakes with lemon, but I shall!

Re: pancakes
Surfermom, I make what I call American pancakes, have them with crispy bacon, maple syrup and hash browns. I love American breakfasts, but only make them rarely because of the calories.Our pancakes are thin, we then squeeze lemon juice and put sugar on them and roll them up, with a final flourish of lemon and sugar on the roll. (At least that's how I made them).

That's the way, then using fingers, pick them up and eat them whilst still warm
Surfermom, we call American pancakes griddle pancakes or scotch pancakes. We don't make then so big either. They are served on a fry ( breakfast ) here in Northern Ireland and in Scotland and are a popular afternoon snack with a cup of tea. Served cold and buttered

Re: pancakes
Ah CeeCee beat me to it, with the description of how we make them.Haven’t made up my batter yet (I cheat and buy a packet mix) so might have them tomorrow. I have turkey mice today (
), with lots of veg added, and shall have some with crispy potato slices. Holly had hers lunchtime (one portion, put two more in fridge for other days), so spect she will try to beg for mine. She absolutely wolfed it down (mashed up boiled veg, rice, and a touch of bovril).
