Turn breakfast into an experience with a DIY pancake platter made for sharing. Soft, fluffy protein pancakes are served alongside a colourful selection of toppings so everyone can build their own perfect stack — from fresh fruit and yoghurt to syrups, nut butters, spreads and sweet treats. The combination of textures and flavours means every plate can be completely different.
Ideal for weekend brunch, celebrations or relaxed gatherings, this interactive serving style makes entertaining easy and fun. Guests can mix and match toppings to create anything from simple classic pancakes to indulgent dessert-style creations, making it just as suitable for kids as it is for adults.
To nail your DIY pancake platter, arrange everything on a large board or platter and let everyone customise their plate at their own pace. It’s a cheerful, flexible and crowd-pleasing way to serve pancakes that turns a meal into a memorable shared moment.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the pancake mix, water and vanilla together until the mixture is smooth.
Melt some butter in a pan and use the mixture to form small pancakes, about 8cm across. When bubbles form on the top and the pancakes are golden on the underside, flip them and cook them on the other side.
Repeat step 2 until no mixture remains.
To construct your charcuterie board, lay your pancakes in a long curve along the length of the board. Surround with your favourite toppings, we suggest mixed berries, chocolate chips, maple syrup, whipped cream, bacon and sprinkles.
