Buckwheat Pancakes with Bacon and Apple


 

This buckwheat pancakes with bacon and apple are a tribute to my Grandma who was a MasterChef in her kitchen, not a day went by without a fresh pie, amazing waffles or a stash of pancakes waiting when you walked through the back door. She loved cooking and baking and I was so lucky I could always "help" her out in the kitchen as a small kid. These sweet and savory pancakes are one of my favorite reminders of her, also cause they are not so common and you won’t find them that easy in a restaurant or tea-room. I love the taste of these pancakes and the smooth beer taste somewhere in the background. Original coming from a Breton cuisine France, called crêpe bretonne, also called bleud ed-du from Lower Brittanie in France. Hope you guys will try out these treats on day, I promise they are worth making them, serve them with some pear syrup or even with a grilled slice of cheese and enjoy.


Stay safe and stay healthy my friends!
