Keep a well-stocked freezer and you will be ready for a spontaneous summer feast at any time of day - start with an indulgent pancake brunch, rustle up a barbecue when the sun comes out or serve up speedy snacks for an evening treat.
Store pancakes in the freezer and you're ready for an impromptu brunch - just choose whether to add sweet or savoury toppings. For a savoury option, stack Bird’s Eye Classic Pancakes with cooked Bird’s Eye Buttermilk Chicken Strips and drizzle with maple syrup mixed with a little sriracha, if you like it spicy. Serve sprinkled with spring onion.
