Pancake Day is the one day of year where we can indulge in a towering stack of pancakes completely guilt-free. To help you make the most of it, we here at Dale Farm have put together a selection of delicious pancake stack combinations for you to try at home. Whether you’re baking with the kids, cooking up something sweet with a partner or enjoying a little solo baking session, these easy pancake topping combinations are guaranteed to go down a treat.
But first, let’s cut out the chaos in the kitchen. If you’re looking for a simple, trusty method to achieve perfectly fluffy pancakes every time, our Dale Farm Buttermilk Pancakes recipe has you covered.
You’ll need:
2 cups all-purpose flour (250 g)
2 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
2 cups Dale Farm buttermilk (480 mL)
2 eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ teaspoon unsalted butter
To make:
In a bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda, and whisk to combine.
In a bowl or measuring cup, whisk the Dale Farm Buttermilk, eggs and melted butter until smooth.
Add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients, gently incorporating with a spatula.
Add the butter to a pan over medium-low heat. Once the butter begins to bubble, add ⅓ cup (80 ml) of batter to the pan.
Cook until the top side begins to bubble and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the pancake and cook until the underside is golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Now your pancakes are ready!
Once you’ve mastered the base, it’s time for the fun part: the toppings. Take a look at our pancake stack combinations below.

This is a pancake stack combo the whole family is guaranteed to enjoy. It’s simple, but it’s delicious. Combine your classic buttermilk pancake stack with Dale Farm Ice Cream. You can go with Dale Farm Vanilla Ice Cream for that classic, creamy taste, or choose Raspberry Ripple for that little fruity kick, or even with our succulent Honeycomb if you’re feeling a little more adventurous and want that extra sweetness. Either way, your tastebuds are in for a treat - you really can’t go wrong.

There’s no such thing as too much chocolate. With Easter approaching, getting your hands on a bag of Mini Eggs has never been easier - and they make for a deliciously sweet pancake topping that your kids will love. For this recipe, simply melt some Nutella and drizzle as much as you’d like over your pancake stack. Finish with some crushed Mini Eggs and you’re sorted! You can even pop some Mini Eggs right into the pancake mixture for some extra chocolatey goodness.

If you’re more of a savoury lover, the American style pancakes with bacon and maple syrup is the one for you. Simply fry off your streaky bacon in a frying pan or pop in the airfryer, add to your plate alongside your Dale Farm Buttermilk pancakes and generously drizzle some maple syrup over top to finish. It’s hearty, it’s warm and it’s the perfect savoury pancake stack combination.
Still not seeing anything up your street? Try these Wholewheat Cinnamon Pancakes with blueberries and honey made using, you guessed it, Dale Farm Buttermilk. It’s the perfect combination of sweetness and a little bit of spice and it’s got that little extra fibre to keep you feeling fuller for longer.
If you’re looking for something a little lighter but still indulgent, you can top your pancake stack with fresh strawberries and Dale Farm Whipping Cream - it’s fresh but it’s still got that creamy goodness we all love without being too heavy.
You can also go old school with the timeless sugar and lemon as a topping. It’s simple, nostalgic and the perfect balance of sweet and zesty - sometimes the more basic pancake toppings really are the best.
However you like to stack them, Pancake Day is all about having a little fun (and making a little mess) in the kitchen and enjoying something delicious with the people you love, or simply treating yourself because you deserve it! From sweet classics to savoury favourites, these pancake stack combinations are designed to be quick, easy and delicious.
With tried and true Dale Farm Buttermilk as your secret ingredient, you’re guaranteed pancakes that taste as good as they look. So grab the frying pan and your favourite toppings and make this Pancake Day one to remember.
