Absolutely flawless. These chocolate waffles, packed with chocolate chips, are crisp on the outside and wonderfully fluffy on the inside. They’re not overly crisp, but have that perfect balance between lightness and tenderness. They’re delicious
Poppy seed and sunflower seed pancakes that can easily be placed in both the sweet and savoury category. They are delicious, yet different from the pancakes I have made before. They pair perfectly with fruit and sweet syrups, but they also seem to be asking
I have a suggestion for tomorrow’s breakfast – if you do not have to rush anywhere because you are on holiday. They are delicate and fluffy, even though I made them with wholemeal spelt flour. The pancake batter is very simple to make
I wondered whether this recipe deserved a place on the blog. But then I remembered we’ve already had recipes for lazy pierogi and pumpkin fritters… it would be a real shame not to include traditional Polish potato pancakes :). I’m quite certain that many of you
If I said this recipe has been in our family for generations, it would hardly be an exaggeration. I remember my grandmother making these fritters, then my mother, and now I make them too. They are absolutely wonderful, though certainly not for anyone looking for
These fried apples were inspired by a recipe for banana fritters. Thick slices of apple are coated in a simple and delicious doughnut-style batter made from basic ingredients that are easy to find in any kitchen. If you have a little more time, you can make a similar version
There are probably as many recipes for knedle as there are for pierogi! 😉 I make plum knedle using a curd cheese dough based on my Mum’s recipe, and before that, my Grandma’s. I have always made them “by eye”, but for the purpose of the blog I finally weighed
Who even came up with the idea of calling them “pierogi”? ;). Regardless of the name, they are absolutely delicious! Until I tried this recipe from Fetti, the lazy pierogi from traditional Polish milk bars seemed impossible to recreate at home (was choosing the right
Being in Belgium and not trying waffles is like being in Paris and not seeing the Eiffel Tower ;). There are countless recipes for Belgian waffles, varying by region — and in fact, there is no single “true” Belgian waffle recipe. The most famous are Brussels waffles
I really wanted to make these with rhubarb — but, as luck would have it, I couldn’t find any in the local shops (most of them were closed because of the Royal Wedding!). Luckily, I had some overripe bananas at home — and they turned out to be a perfect substitute.
Waffles — but make them luxurious! This elegant waffle “cake” is a fun and unusual way to serve a classic favourite. Whether it turns out more like a cake or a gateau depends on the size of your waffle maker. I used a smaller one to create a more delicate, refined look.
Crêpes with sweet cheese filling are simply thin pancakes spread with curd cheese, then lightly fried in butter and served warm – just the way we like them. For the filling, I add egg yolks along with sugar, which makes it richer and gives it the perfect consistency.
The fluffiest pancakes in the world! If you already know Japanese cheesecake, it’s time to discover these cloud-like Japanese pancakes. Light, airy, and soufflé-like, they get their incredible height and softness from whipped egg whites. They smell beautifully of vanilla or citrus
I can already hear you: “Oh, come on – who needs a recipe for crepes?” I used to make them without a proper recipe, simply mixing flour, milk and eggs and getting on with it. But ever since I picked up Michel Roux’s Eggs, this is the only way I make them…
A cosy autumn twist on the classic Kaiserschmarrn — Apfelschmarrn, a light and fluffy shredded pancake. This version is enriched with finely chopped apples, gently sautéed in butter with a touch of cinnamon and raisins. It’s a true treat — perfect for a leisurely
These spinach crepes can be made today — no need to wait for spring! Children will love the vibrant green colour of their favourite crepes, and you’ve got a quick snack sorted. You can also achieve a green colour by adding basil or kale to a classic
Probably the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten. And those bananas in them… absolutely heavenly! There was a suggestion to serve them with pecans, but they didn’t last long enough… Maybe next time… ;).
Whenever I manage to buy fragrant, beautiful first-of-the-season local strawberries, I immediately want to make pancakes or crêpes to go with them. This time I tried the famous American pancakes recipe by Nigella Lawson — and it did not disappoint.
