I am a huge fan of breakfast, and I know nothing better than having plenty of time in the morning to make something delicious and enjoy it with a hot cup of coffee while reading a good book or the newspaper.
The weekend is around the corner, why not treat yourself with some lemon pancakes with fresh blueberries and some light syrup.
I do love American pancakes with tons of syrup and bacon on the side, but sometimes a girl needs some elegance in her life and then the french version is the way to go. My pancake batter is sugar-free and very simple to make.
It is easier to make these crepe inspired pancakes with a pancake pan, but don’t let it stop you if you don’t have one, just use your regular frying pan. Just make sure you make the pancakes paper thin. You can serve these fresh and citrus tasting pancakes with any kind of berries and any kind of syrup.
I recently received a homemade plum syrup from a friend and I find it the perfect breakfast syrup. I’ll ask her for the recipe and share it with you guys. To spice the dish up a little bit, I grated some fresh ginger over the pancakes and sifted a little bit of powdered sugar for decoration.
