GRAPE CINNAMON PANCAKES
I get too excited when I am going to prepare pancakes for breakfast. I honestly do love pancakes, I call them my first love with the kitchen. That first spark that warms up your heart and you can never let it go. That’s what pancakes do to my heart. I remember when I was young and whenever I would come back from school and found my mom at home preparing pancakes I would drop my bag and find myself flying to the kitchen and getting myself comfortable on the kitchen counter-top to watch my mum prepare them for the beloved 4 o’clock tea enjoyed in Kenyan homes , the chai ya saa kumi. I love pancakes because they are super easy to prepare and the number one thing that I love about them is that they take up flavors easily, allowing you to taste and enjoy every bit of your pancake.
This period in time, you cannot fail to spot fruit vendors selling grapes on the streets as they are in season. I as a lover of grapes could not resist stopping to buy a couple of grapes to carry along as I head home. While relaxing and invoking my creative side, as I am currently on a personal journey and mission to create my own unique recipes at least once a month for you my lovely readers, I decided to put my grapes into use and needless to say I jumped into the kitchen and what came into mind was my first love, pancakes and I could not hold my curiosity to taste how the pancakes would turn out to be. The end product was mind blowing, the grape cinnamon pancakes were super delicious and tasty. Every bite of the pancake left me wanting more and more of the pancakes. That is how, these grape and cinnamon pancakes came to be, which are my first ever own and unique recipe to create. They are very sweet and tantalizing and you will never want to skip breakfast again when you know you will be having this grape cinnamon pancakes.
