Concoct pancake? (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

make up

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'concoct' is the first definition.
(I know that make up is a more specific form of the action concoct)

'pancake?' is the second definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for make up that I've seen before include "supplement" , "type of paint" , "Compose - cosmetics" , "Invent" , "Compensate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
