Easy Pumpkin Pancakes

Threw this together for my family for Thanksgiving breakfast and it was a hit. The boys asked if it was pumpkin pie! If desired, you can add chocolate chips after pancakes are poured onto the skillet, pat them with a bit of batter so they don’t stick when turned.

Walnut Poteca

This recipe is time consuming to make, but worth the effort. The rolls freeze well when wrapped securely with foil. You will have enough to feed an Army, but it will disappear quickly!

Aebleskiver (Danish Pancakes)

As a young girl, I constantly craved Saturdays and Sundays when my mother would prepare these small delicious pancakes.

Definitely add in any kind of jam, peanut butter, honey, Nutella®, chocolate chips, fruit (diced apples, blueberries, etc.); the possibilities are endless and so delicious!

Basic Irish Soda Bread With Cheese

This is the most simple Irish Soda Bread recipe I’ve ever used. I learned it from an old Irish gentleman years ago, and it’s been my favorite ever since. You can make it simply, and without the cheese, or add the cheese. With or without it, this recipe is great served with soups!

Honey Whole Wheat Challah

          

Challah, the delicious and beautiful braided bread traditionally served at the Friday night Jewish Sabbath meal, is made with the addition of whole wheat, and sweetened with honey. This slow-rise recipe is designed for flexibility, so split-second timing isn’t necessary. This is a wonderful bread for a first-time breadmaker. Braid with a 3 or 4-strand braid, and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.

Dansk Aebleskiver (Danish Doughnuts)

My husband is from Denmark, and making this traditional Danish favorite is a family affair. I make the batter, my husband does the cooking, and the kids help us make them disappear! We like to dip our aebleskivers in raspberry jam, maple syrup, and powdered sugar. The cardamom gives them that something extra. No wonder this recipe is a family favorite! Danish cooks use a long knitting needle to turn the doughnuts, but you can use a fork, too.
