The ancient Greeks and Romans ate pancakes, sweetened with honey; the Elizabethans ate them flavored with spices, rosewater, sherry, and apples. They were traditionally eaten in quantity on Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Day, a day of feasting and partying before the beginning of Lent.

But here at St. A’s we love Bob Wild’s Recipe for Oatmeal Pancakes! (former rector of St. A’s)

They are the best and very Filling. Enjoy
