I am sharing Panqueques con Dulce de Leche (Argentinian Dulce de Leche Crepes) for this month’s #FoodieExtravaganza pancake theme! What is Food Extravaganza? It’s when a group of bloggers get together and make a recipe using one main ingredient. Where do we get the ingredient? The host for the month (this time it is Caroline of Caroline’s Cooking) looks at The Nibble and…
Champagne Pear Crepes
These Champagne Pear Crepes are a delicious way in ring in the New Year. Peeled pears are poached in a champagne-vanilla bean sauce until tender, then sliced and served with crepes. The remaining champagne sauce is simmered until reduced into a sweet syrup to pour over the top. I forgot to add it before taking the…

Goodbye Fort Walton Beach and Vanilla Bean Crepe Trio
We are moving! Over the next couple of weeks, we are making the transition to the Northern Virginia/D.C. area. While I am so excited to begin the next chapter of our lives, the past four years have been wonderful and I am a little sad to be leaving some parts of it. Sure there…
Happy Mother’s Day!
Yesterday, I had a cooking demonstration featuring breakfast dishes at Le Creuset for Mother’s Day. The store is also newly remodeled, so it was great to see the new look! I prepared Arme Riddere (Norwegian Cinnamon Toast) and Kanelplättar (Swedish Mini Cinnamon Pancakes). I topped the Arme Riddere with macerated strawberries and mint sour cream….
Kanelplättar (Swedish Mini Cinnamon Pancakes)
Plättar are the small version of Pannkakor, Swedish pancakes. They are also popular in Finland. These little pancakes are the silver dollars of crepes, incredibly thin and perfect for filling with various toppings. Plättar are traditionally made in a Plättlagg or Plett pan, a cast iron pan with indentations for holding the batter. Since the batter…

The crepe batter is seasoned with pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice. I used this pumpkin pie…
Hortobágyi Palacsinta (Hungarian Stuffed Crepes)
Hortobágyi Palacsinta are savory stuffed crepes from Hungary. Meat is sauteed with onions, tomatoes, paprika, and sour cream to form a stew (Pörkölt). The sauce is drained from the meat before it is wrapped in the crepes. Flour and sour cream are whisked into the remaining sauce, poured over the filled crepes, and baked until…
Pannekoek (South African Crepes with Cinnamon Sugar)
It has rained almost daily this summer since July 4th. It has been a nice break not having to water the garden, but also makes outdoor activities difficult. Even when the sun is shining, the mosquitoes are out in full force so we haven’t been able to spend time in the backyard. Pannekoek are crepes…
Blinchiki/Blini (Russian Crepes)
Blinchiki are thin, crepe-like pancakes from Russia. They are referred to as Blini in some regions, though blini were originally formed using yeast or another leavening agent. Often Blinchiki are stuffed, but I served these folded with sour cream and strawberry jam. I had never tried crepes with sour cream and jam, but now I…
