Canadian Pancakes – an original recipe
Do you know Pancakes?
Here I have once more an original Canadian recipe for you. Directly imported from our friends in Toronto.
Besides the heavenly cinnamon buns and the homemade naan bread, we were also lucky to enjoy some wonderfully fluffy buttermilk pancakes during our visit to Canada – and even write down the recipe.
They can taste in many different ways depending on what you add to the batter – blueberries, chocolate chips, or spices.
Cardamom and cinnamon go great
Whatever you’re craving – or whatever you have in the house.
And the basic recipe is very easy to prepare
Prepared from basic ingredients that almost everyone has at home. Except maybe the buttermilk, you’ll probably have to plan for that when you shop. It’s worth it!
By the way; Buttermilk is the liquid leftover from butter production.
In Canadian households, the pancakes are baked in special pancake pans – but it also works in regular frying pans.
The maple syrup on the finished pancakes cannot be missing, of course!
Preferably a really good, thick, tasty one!
At your next Easter brunch table, these Canadian pancakes are sure to be appreciated.
