Pancake Day – AKA the best day of the year – is officially here. Which means you can *definitely* eat pancakes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. And while lemon and sugar remains a classic Pancake Day recipe topping (and a WH fave – both our fashion editor Clementina Jackson and health and fitness writer Kate Cheng say it’s their go-to!) and you simply can’t go wrong with a dollop of crowd-pleasing Nutella and a handful of strawberries, sometimes it’s nice to try something new.
Whatever your pancake preference – whether you’re more sweet or savoury – we’ve collated some of the most fun and inventive pancake recipes on the internet (to save you scrolling).
Smothered in maple syrup or piled high with fresh berries, these are our fave Pancake Day recipes to enjoy not just today, but any day....
Top tip: You can make the batter the day or evening before, just leave it in a jug or bowl in the fridge overnight. And whatever batter is leftover, you can freeze for up to a month.

With nearly a decade of journalistic experience – in print, online and social – at national newspapers and lifestyle magazines, it’s fair to say Alice has tried it all when it comes to health and fitness. From packing herself off to an extreme Aveduric retreat in Sri Lanka and sweat-testing every new fitness fad to running the London Marathon and completing a 70.3 IronMan, Alice now looks after WH’s food content. With a ‘food first’ ethos, she is here to help you decipher exactly which foods will support your health, and which macro-counting, pasta-replacing, intermittent-fasting, 13-day cleanse is just, well, a scam. A keen baker and host, her favourite dessert has to be pavlova (with lots of summer berries and whipped cream, of course).
