How to make the prettiest pancakes

Trust and believe, we’ll be having them for all three meals!

We went to see our friends at Farm Girl café in Chelsea (if you haven’t been to any of their London locations before, you must!) for a masterclass in how to make the prettiest pancakes and we nailed it if we do say so ourselves.
Want in? We were sure to take down some notes to pass on the knowledge to you fellow pancake enthusiasts! Here’s how you too can make the prettiest pancakes…
