Make your morning breakfast a little more romantic with these!
A sweet little twist to your traditional pancake will go a long way. Up your pancake game on any special occasion, or turn any morning into a special one by using this recipe.
This is another one from my Valentine’s day collection- Beautiful Pink Velvet Pancakes infused with Rosé for the perfect start to your special day. No surprise here, this one too has alcohol in it- I mean who doesn’t want to start their day with some light bubbly drink; cant be only me!
The Rosé did give the pancake a not-so sweet flavour, so I decided to add in the Strawberry syrup to compensate that sweetness required. I believe that worked really well. I was lucky enough that the strawberries I bought were a perfect balance of sweet and tangy, which really help the pancakes get their unique flavour.
To be honest, pancake is not at a regular in my household. I can literally count on the fingers of my hands, the number of times I have eaten pancake. And that was my motivation to make this. I hope you like my rendition of this Adult Pancakes. And hey, if you want your kids to enjoy this as well, just skip the Rosé - they will taste just as good.
