• Banana Foster Cinnamon Pancakes – 12th Shade of Valentines Cooking

    In honour of Pancake day yep its a real holiday. Maybe not a public one that gives you time off work but a day for you to celebrate your love for pancakes i’m assuming. Anyway, Our beloved chef Abby, has sent in a pancake recipe to celebrate pancake day and to tie in with the valentines’s season. Hope you enjoy it.

    Sweetheart Breakfast…

    My friends know how much I LOVE pancakes. If you are at my house for breakfast, you are definitely eating pancakes, no questions asked (ok, maybe with some eggs and sausages, if you are being nice). I prefer just pancakes because they are awesome on their own.

    It’s my “go-to” food when I want to have a relaxed day and watch my Korean movies (Yep, KOREAN). Usually accompanied with hot chocolate or tea, but for special occasions you can spice things up with a glass of Mimosa (composed of one part champagne “or other sparkling wine” and one part thoroughly chilled citrus fruit juice, usually orange juice unless otherwise specified)
