Join in today’s Pancake Day celebrations :). Traditionally, every year, 40 days before Easter, the British (along with several other nationalities) tuck into pancakes, have fun and celebrate. It’s the last chance to indulge before Lent begins! How many pancakes can
Healthier rye sourdough pancakes that you can serve with your favourite toppings. They can be made with either rye or wheat sourdough starter – I most often keep a rye starter at home, hence the idea for using it this way. As well as using sourdough, it was important
Perfect Kaiserschmarrn, a classic Austrian dish. Kaiserschmarrn is a thick, sweet and fluffy pancake or light omelette, torn into pieces while cooking. It is incredibly light and airy. In Austria, it is often served as a sweet main course, but it is also popular for breakfast

If you have half a cup of pumpkin purée left after making pumpkin soup or baking a pumpkin cake, use it to make these waffles :). They are crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle, delicately scented with pumpkin but wonderfully fragrant with cinnamon!

These soft and fluffy yoghurt pancakes with fresh plums are a wonderful late summer treat. Just as with my strawberry pancakes, the plum halves or slices are added to one side of each pancake while it’s cooking, then the pancakes are flipped to finish

It’s so good to be home! As much as I love travelling, there’s definitely a lot of truth in the saying, “There’s no place like home.” Do you know what I missed the most? Homemade pancakes! I made a batch almost as soon as we got back, once we’d restocked the
I’ll admit that after making drop scones, I was left wanting a little more. As good as they are, ordinary griddle cakes just aren’t my favourite. What I really love are pancakes! I’d never tried making them with pineapple before, and since it’s one of Pola’s
