This is just plain silly!

... and we know that Sara thought a Flapjack was some kind of pancake (I believe ), this was the first time I ever had one - and they were made with oatmeal and honey, baked lightly in the oven. Delicious!

Randi, do you mean to say that Flapjacks is NOT another word for
pancakes?? They're the same thing.

Gini, I always turn my cookies over too, just never thought about it much.
Doesn't everyone?

I could not possibly eat a cookie/biscuit/cake upside down. I have never re-built a burger though.

A flapjack and a pancake are totally different!

A pancake is flat, round and made from milk, flour and eggs. A flapjack is a chunk of oats cooked together in honey or syrup, sometimes you can put raisons and dried fruit in it too.

Pancake



Flapjack



I never knew you called pancakes flapjacks over there, lol. I suppose you learn something new every day!

Flapjack!!

Miss Z, you know what you're talking about! The flapjack I got in The Lamb Inn, looked pretty much the same. I had never tried them before, so had to ask what they were though, before I ordered. They're delicious!

Think I'm going to make some tomorrow - if I can find the recipe!

Eating a hot dog is just not possible, unless the right side is up!

you didn't realize there was a top or a bottom to a cookie!!

it all goes to the same place.......... is what my dad always says...
well - what he says I can't type here - it is a family friendly site.


Anyone else if they get something a bit too uhhhh done (ok burnt) flip it over so that the unburnt side is up -
Like it makes a difference in taste (its still going to taste BURNT! ) but its prettier!!

Hmmm.

It was probably an Aussie cookie....

Oh yes, I do that too.

The picture Miss Z posted is definitely a flapjack.
