12 servings · Easy

A cheaper, sturdier cousin of the pancake, baked in a tin instead of griddled, and it turns up in British packing tins about as often as it does at the breakfast table. Oats and golden syrup give it a set, faintly toffee character that holds a slice together in the hand. Cutting the sugar back is common, and the syrup and any dried fruit then have to do more of the binding work to stop the tray spreading in the oven.
