Instructions

Hair up
Neckers off or tucked in
Wash hands
Make the batter (leader to pierce and tins that require it)
Put candle in centre of plate and light
Put tin over candle
Put oil on tin base (now on top)
Once hot (try pouring out some melted wax if the flame is too small) put a tablespoon of batter on the tin to cook
Use fork to hold the tin and use the knife as a spatula to turn pancake over
Once finished, extinguish the flame (if not cooking more), add topping(s) and eat
Wash up

Options:
1. Use baking paper rather than oiling the top, a second piece of baking paper on top meant they could easily flip it over, and nothing stuck. Most managed a couple of pancakes each in the session
2. Use tuna tins. They made their own batter in a mug (1 egg, 2 heaped dessert spoons flour and thinned with a little milk). Butter to stop them sticking. By using a small can and making a small pancake, they had time to cook several each.
