Strawberry Griddle Cakes.

These sound like Welsh cakes, Diane, except we add sultanas/currants.

They are great favourites with most people and Delia Smith has her MIL's recipe in one of her books as Delia's husband is Welsh.

Back home we used a special griddle. Now I use a frying pan!

they sound yummy :o)

Thanks Eirlys and SB girl. I used to make them with currants. Then bought these dried Strawberries out of curiosity on the snacks counter. Found them too hard to chew, so put some in soak, chopped them and put them in the griddle cakes without the Mixed Spice. Really like them that way. Am thinking now they would also work with
soaked, cooked and chopped Cranberries.
Have made Cauliflower Soup this week. Nick Nairne's recipe for Broccolli Soup. Easy, cheap and very good.
Cant find Welsh Cakes in my Delia, it must be there somewhere !

Yes they are very like the welsh cakes I make as Erilys said , when my daughter would go camping with her 3 boys I would make a tin full up to 50 cakes !! I make mine on a cast iron bake stone I had my mothers bake stone for years till it split I then managed to buy one in a old iron mongers shop I will try the strawberry ones on my bake stone it’s also called a griddle in some places .

They were often made in Scottish homes where the Peat fired stove was always burning which kept the house warm, aired the nappies on the fireguard, baked the bread in the oven,and cooked the Griddle Cakes on top.
I bought a Griddle Pan £18 from Sainsburys and now I am used to keeping the gas flame as low as possible make these little cakes which I find very handy in the freezer drawer. Will save putting the oven on in the hot weather -
when it comes !
