Instructions for making Shrovetide Pancakes with Bacon recipe: First, grind the oatmeal into flour using a coffee grinder.

Then add sugar and dry yeast. Leave for 15 minutes until the mixture begins to ferment. While the mixture is fermenting, mix the salt with the eggs in a separate container, then add it to the oatmeal mixture. Next, add flour, vegetable oil, and finely chopped bacon.
