    I eat crepes with butter, lemon juice and sugar - mmm.

    Same here but instead of sugar we use maple syrup and usually add a sprinkle of ground cinnamon and some blueberries and/or sliced banana, yummy :)

    That's pretty much what they are....filled deep fried fat pastries (its a Polish tradition and the bakeries in Hamtramck make the best)...

    They're probably about the size of an average person's fist

    Depends!

    In the summer I love them topped with stewed fresh berries, a dash of lemon juice and a dusting of powdered sugar.

    In the winter I like them with real butter and warmed maple syrup.

    For a Snack I like to put Peanut Butter and banana slices on top.

    Sometimes I will top them with some cottage cheese and more stewed berries.

    I also love them with fruit added in before being baked: blueberries, apples and cinnamon, bananas and chocolate chips.

    At other times I'll be adventurous with pancakes, but on Pancake Day is just has to be lemon juice and sugar (or sometimes, if I'm feeling rebellious) a drizzle of maple syrup. I've been and swam a mile this morning to make some calorie space :-)

    I normally have them with an insane amount of butter, so now I don't have them....I miss pancakes....sigh. Actually, I like them when I have them, but don't really seek them out, but this thread may get me to have buttercakes, I mean pancakes.

    I love the Brits. Their answer to Mardi Gras is to have pancakes. Such decadence, such indulgence! Does that mean everyone gives up syrup for Lent?

    I must say, I have lived in the right parts of the US, eating kielbasa and such, but I have never had packzi day :(

    Normally butter and real maple syrup. The dark kind. But today, none. It's better that way. :(

    My family loves it when I make my apple pancakes. I shred two green apples in pancake batter and sprinkle some cinnamon. We eat them with syrup. They are so good!

    Butter and syrup. No need to get fancy.

    Depends. Generally just peanut butter or regular butter and maple syrup (boysenberry syrup if I've been able to find it locally). Sometimes I like to top with mixed berries and some whipped cream. Then some times I just add a bit of brown sugar and maple syrup to the batter and eat the pancake plain (This is really nice when I need to eat on my way to somewhere and it's really nice for toddlers who still haven't really mastered eating something with a topping yet.)
