Pancake Day, taking place on February 21, was used as an opportunity for people to use up all of the spare ingredients in their cupboards before the fasting period commenced – including milk, flour and eggs.<\/p>\n
But if you’re looking to get creative with your toppings this year, Mary Berry’s Scotch pancakes are the perfect base for everything from eggs and bacon to sweet sauces and fruit.<\/p>\n
Whether you like thin crepes or thick, American pancakes, Mary Berry’s drop scones are the perfect mix of both for Shrove Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The smaller, fluffy pancakes can be topped with sweet or savoury foods and you need just a handful of basic ingredients to make them.<\/p>\n
I followed the easy recipe myself and they were perfectly fluffy inside with a zesty tang from the orange. Here’s how to make them yourself.<\/p>\n

Demonstrating the recipe in her BBC programme Classic Mary Berry, she said: “They’re absolutely delicious and very simple to make.”<\/p>\n Similar to thin, crepe pancakes, this Scotch-style batter needs to be silky smooth for the best results. To achieve this, you should mix the dry ingredients together before adding the liquids into a large mixing bowl.<\/p>\n Add the flour, sugar, and baking powder and stir until combined. If you’re topping your pancakes with sweet ingredients, add the orange zest in at this point too, or leave it out if you prefer savoury flavours.<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> <\/p>\n
