How To make Scotch Pancakes
1/4 lb Plain white household flour
1 ts Bicarbonate of soda
1 1/2 ts Cream of tartare
1 oz Caster sugar
1 Egg
1/4 pt Milk or cream
Sift the flour with the raising agents and stir in the sugar. Make a well in the centre and break the egg into it. Whisk the milk into the egg, then gradually incorporate the dry ingredients to make a very smooth, thick batter. Alternately, simply mix everything together in a food processor. If time permits let the batter stand for 30 minutes before cooking. Heat a griddle, bakestone or cast-iron frying pan until very hot - or cook direct on the hot plate of an Aga. Grease your chosen surface lightly with buttered paper, using just enough fat to prevent the pancakes from sticking. Using a large metal spoon held point downward, drop a few small rounds of batter on to the hot surface. Space them well apart. Cook over steady heat until bubbles rise to the surface and the underside of the pancakes are browned - about 2 minutes. Loosen them gently with a palette knife, then flip them over and cook for about 1 minute longer. Makes about 16 pancakes. Source: Philippa Davenport in "Country Living" (British),

Scotch Pancakes
For breakfast, brunch, lunch or an after dinner treat, Scotch Pancakes are an absolute favourite in the Mellow Yellow Kitchen. Also known as drop scones, this recipe creates a really thick batter that holds its shape when you ‘drop’ it into the frying pan. These little pancakes are lovely and fluffy and absolutely delicious with your favourite topping. Try golden syrup and banana, chocolate and berries, crispy bacon and maple syrup or simply butter and jam.
This recipe uses Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil which is low in saturated fat and high in Omega 3, making this recipe ideal for a healthy and balanced diet.

Scotch Pancakes Drop Scones w Bananas & Butterscotch Sauce
In my third option for Pancake Day/Shrove Tuesday treats I offer Scotch Pancakes, or Drop Scones, with bananas and a butterscotch sauce. These are a lovely soft and springy pancake, similar to those so popular in North America. They are perfect with fruit or syrup, and especially with this particular topping.
