Flour + milk + eggs = pancakes!

My tasty (not so healthy) training fuel this week has been the glorious pancake in all its forms...it's such a simple treat made from a few basic ingredients, but it is so versatile and so very more-ish.

A savory one - ham & cheddar cheese with a sprinkle of mustard powder & brown sugar, mmm!

Some people make flipping them look so darn easy! This one ended up a classic British style pancake with sugar & lemon.
My efforts at making American pancakes, eaten with butter & maple syrup.

Whether it's fluffy American pancakes slathered in butter and smothered in maple syrup, or perhaps one of their slimline British counterparts sprinkled with sugar and a drizzle of lemon juice, or even the classic French crepe expertly flipped about in a pan. They are all deliciously mouth watering in their own way and oh-so-tempting when they are placed in front of you. Who could say no to a yummy pancake! Are they good fuel for a run? I'm certainly crossing my fingers on that issue.
