God yes! My kids love them too so I make them often! They like nutella. I love lots of butter, sugar and lemon and sometimes golden syrup. Won't be running down the road tossing them today as in the middle of a snow storm

I doubt you're in the minority - I couldn't imagine adding anything else to "real" pancakes.

I love those too.
We used to look after French language students when we lived in the UK and they used to cook for us sometimes. My favourite way of having french crepes is with butter and scrambled egg in them or slices of ham and an egg cooked inside the crepe.
My English pancakes just have lemon and sugar on though.
