Our top 5 pancake toppings:

Strawberries and cream

Fresh, chopped strawberries with whipped cream and a sprinkling of sugar. Finish with a scattering of grated chocolate, mint leaves or toasted almonds for classic pancake decadence.

Tropical Fruit

A mix of chopped pineapple, kiwi fruit, strawberries and mango makes an exotic and refreshing pancake topping.

Millionaires' Shortbread

For the ultimate sweet indulgence! Simply drizzle warm pancakes with caramel sauce and top with crushed shortbread biscuits. Melt your favourite chocolate and add to the pancake topping.

Yoghurt and blueberry

Greek yoghurt mixed with fruit such as blueberries or banana makes an ideal breakfast pancake and healthier alternative to sugary fillings. Top with a light drizzle of honey for a natural sweetener.

Camembert and mushroom

Prefer a savoury option? Go gourmet with creamy camembert and mushroom. Fry chopped mushrooms with garlic, thyme leaves and a knob of butter, then mix in diced camembert and crème fraiche. Fill the pancakes with the mixture and top with more thyme. A quick and tasty alternative to sweet toppings.
