For example Pancake Day hamper? (7,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

movable feast

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

'day hamper?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'for example pancake' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'example' could be 'as' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'as' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for movable feast that I've seen before include "Easter, for instance" , "Meal on wheels" , "Easter perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
