So, pancakes! "Pancakes" are something like "inflated" crepes, cooked in a frying pan and traditionally served with lemon juice and sugar. More common accompaniments, of course, are syrup, chocolate, fruit, honey, nuts and whatever one can imagine!
Our fifth grade students became chefs for a while: To let off stress, satisfy our hunger and get to know the......"traditional" British and American breakfast!
"Armed" with our utensils... |
We gathered all the ingredients... |
...and started the procedure... |
Careful breaking of the eggs is needed... |
...as well as a good mixing... |
...persistence and patience...! |
"Here are the tasty pancaaaaakes! If you eat, you eat again" |
Little (and big) chefs on the job...! |
"It's OK to 'steal' a small bite until they're all ready, no?"... |
"Miss! You're doing it the wrong way!" |
"Of course I am! These hats are made for small heads...!" |
They need to turn golden-brown on both sides... |
A little chocolate spread-to make swallowing easier! |
ΛA little more! Don't be tight-fisted here |
Ready for consumption! |
A souvenir photo before their disappearance off the plate... |
Well, kids? Are they any good? |
"I'll tell you, miss!" |
"They're OK, at least judging
by the small taste I had...!"

...Our secret, original recipe (for those of you who got jealous!):
Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- vanilla extract
- 2 cups milk
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- a pinch of salt
2. Heat a frying pan over medium high heat. Pour the batter (not the "butter"!) onto the frying pan, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
