‘Fluffy American-style pancakes are my favourite type of pancake, but I also can never resist those melty cheese-and-ham-stuffed crêpes you get at street-food markets. This got me thinking: what if American-style pancakes could be stuffed with cheese? Win, win! These delicious pancakes have an oozing brie and cheddar centre, and are served with optional crispy bacon instead of ham. They’re the best of both worlds, and sure to be a winner with cheese-lovers – the gooey cheese-pull you get when you break into them is bound to get you lots of social media attention, too.’

‘Pancake Day often falls during February half-term, and this pancake cake was born when trying to keep my kids busy on a wet, windy Tuesday a few years back. Give each child a jar of something sweet and spreadable, and as you cook the pancakes, let the kids spread and stack. If you time it right, it should keep them entertained (screen-free) for a good hour. You could also use mashed banana, or lemon curd and cream. One small tip on making the batter: I make mine in a blender or smoothie maker to save on the washing-up, as the batter can be poured from the jug.’
