[Ambah]

They sound scrummy Lucy, I will have to try out your recipe too...
Seems like a novel way to get some veggies into the kiddies too!

[Melinda]

I saw this in the Coles newsletter and I thought it sounded so deliciously mouthwatering that I had to post it!

Banana & Passionfruit Pancakes

INGREDIENTS
2 cups self raising flour, sifted
1 tablespoon caster sugar
2 large eggs, separated
2 cups Skim Milk
170g can passionfruit
2 large ripe bananas, thinly sliced
Spray oil for cooking

Place flour and sugar into a medium bowl and gradually blend in milk, egg yolks and ¼ cup of passionfruit. Whisk egg whites to stiff peaks and fold into mixture.
Heat spray oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add ½ cup of pancake mixture to pan, arrange 8 banana slices over. Cook for approximately 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden and puffed. Repeat to make 12 pancakes.
Serve pancakes with extra passionfruit.

HI, There was some talk in the BB 16-30 Jul 07 Thread about Lemonade scones, they are so easy and fast that I thought I would share with everyone.

4 cups SR FLour
1 300ml tub of cream (plus extra cream for eating later)
Pinch of salt
1 can of lemonade

Put sifted flour, salt and cream in a bowl add lemonade gradually (because you won't need the whole can You should have enough lemonade over to have a couple of swigs for you.) and stir it all up to a dough just like you normally would.

Roll it out, cut it out cook it just in an average oven.

I know these don't look much like directions but seriously this is how I cook them and they are great, they are a wing it kind of thing, great last minute and no rubbing in the butter.

I hope this makes sence

My mum uses lemonade and it really seems to help make yummy scones!!!

[~Kim~]

I love these. Great idea. I would never have believed the difference the lemonade made until I tried them....you have inspired me!

[wardygirl]

It sounds too easy Becca. I'll have to try them. Thanks!

Hi Becca,
How many ml are your cans of lemonade? We have 340ml cans and 200ml cans...
Thanks

[Tanya]

These are yummo scones!!

Kimi... My sis' recipe says 300ml of room temp lemonade

Thanks Tanya

HI Kim,

I think the original recipie was about the 340ml mark because it was an American recipie. My cans are 375ml, which is why I don't use the full can. I would go for the bigger can and just add it gradually until you don't need any more.

I love this recipie though, It's great and if you know you might have guests coming over you can whip them up really quickly and they cook quick and you can even wait until just before you need them, and they'll be really fresh.

They are good for cravings too, because they don't take too long,

Now I feel like scones.

My MIL makes lemonade scones all the time and she uses this recipe:

3 cups SR Flour
1 cup Cream
1 Cup Lemonade (she uses is warm too)

She also makes golden syrup scrolls out of the mixture as well. When you flatten it out to cut out scones, leave it as is and drizzle golden syrup over the top to cover. Roll up and cut into scrolls. Place in a baking dish. Then mix about 3/4 cup golden syrup with about a cup of boiling water. Pour this over the scrolls and then sprinkle them with coconut. Cook for around 40 minutes or until brown and cooked through. YUMMY!

[wardygirl]

Ooh that sounds like a yummy variation too. Will have to try that. They'd be awesome with macadamia's in too Oh yum!

[wardygirl]

I might even make some tonight Fletch. DH's working late and the kids are in bed (although Blake's protesting!)

Wish you lived round the corner so you could come and have some with me.

[wardygirl]

Help!! LOL!

I'd planned on making waffles for Christmas Breakfast... "In the morning, I'm makin' waffles!" but can't find my waffle book. Does anyone have a tried and true waffle recipe?
