Scottish pancakes, also known as Scotch pancakes or Drop scones, are a type of pancake served warm and fluffy. They are thicker than traditional pancakes and are typically made with a combination of oats, flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, and milk. The resulting batter is slightly thicker than traditional pancake batter and is dropped onto a hot griddle or frying pan, forming small, round cakes. Butterscotch sauce, a sweet and buttery sauce made from brown sugar, butter, and cream, is the perfect accompaniment to Scottish pancakes. This luxurious sauce adds a delectable richness and sweetness to the pancakes, creating a delightful combination of flavors and textures.

Tips:

  • Cook your pancakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. This will make it difficult for the pancakes to cook evenly.
  • Serve your pancakes immediately with butter and maple syrup. You can also top them with fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.
  • To make the butterscotch sauce, use a heavy saucepan. This will help prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Stir the sauce constantly. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from curdling.
  • Don't overcook the sauce. It should be thick and creamy, but not too thick.
  • Serve the sauce warm over pancakes, waffles, or ice cream.
