What toppings are you having on your pancakes?

Seeing as it is shrove Tuesday today I was just being nosey and wondering if anybody else is going to be cooking any pancakes tonight? If you are what toppings are you having?
We always have a variety of toppings the kids love toffee or maple but I stick to the traditional lemon and sugar.
Happy flipping!!

We've already had ours!

The pancakes went a bit wrong so we ended up eating fried batter mix that was kinda lumpy instead of flat and round

Still, it still tasted yummy with bananas and golden syrup

Be having ours around 5:30pm and it will be the traditional lemon and sugar topping for us. Like my pancakes nice and thick as well. The wife says I'm just a greedy so and so

We'll be having traditional lemon and sugar ones - or at least I will; the children might be more adventurous

Re: What toppings are you having on your pancakes?

Has no one else had them for main course and pudding? Maybe we're just odd. We had pork stir fry wrapped in pancakes for main course and then pancakes with lemon and sugar for pud. It's only once a year so why not

Had mine with raisins soaked in rum, mixed leberally with fromage frais, spread on the pancake and rolled. . . . Unforgettable.

Re: What toppings are you having on your pancakes?

Thanks for all the replys.Some great suggestions for alternative toppings.I tried the savory fillings last year and nobody liked them..So we just stuck to sweet toppings this year,Toffee and chocolate was quite popular as was maple.
Glad you got your pancakes in the end Mr Magoo.
