READER FAVOURITE 💯- English Pancakes coming in hot!

Published 28 days ago • 1 min read

​
Hi there, Reader

It's Shrove Tuesday A.K.A Pancake Day, (or you might know it as Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras), and I've got you covered with the BEST Vegan English Pancake recipe!

These pancakes are just like the original. Soft, tender, beautifully freckled, and so delicious sprinkled with an indecent amount of granulated sugar and ridiculous amounts of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Whether you celebrate pancake day or not, you're going to love them!

Even though I live in Canada now, home of thick fluffy pancakes with rivers of real maple syrup, a massive pile of English pancakes always happen for dinner on Shrove Tuesday! (You can take the girl out of England but you can't take the English out of the girl!)

Here's what some of you have had to say about this recipe:

"I've just made your recipe for a perfect pancake day! Absolutely amazing. They turned out just as I remember. In the traditional British manner, I'm scoffing the lot then will fall into a pancake coma and repeat the process again every year. Thank you so much for sharing." - Nicola ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"I have made these fantastic pancakes several times. Takes me back to my British childhood and how pancakes used to taste. Light, fluffy, delicious. The only reason i don’t make them more often is I can’t be trusted not to eat every one." - Deborah ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"What can you say about this recipe apart from best traditional pancake recipe EVER!" - Michele ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"These turned out perfectly. So simple to make as well! Was a bit worried at how thin the batter was but I shouldn’t have been. So chuffed to have found such a good recipe, will definitely be my go-to for pancakes now :)" - Emily ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Really truly excellent pancakes. The taste of pancake day personified! Yum!!" - Sara ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you make this recipe, I'd love to hear in the comments how it turns out. You can also share a picture on Instagram. Be sure to tag @avirtualvegan!

Hi there, Reader Welcome back to another end-of-the-month catch-up! This meme that keeps popping up in my Facebook feed lately says everything about my life of late...😆 Things are a bit up in the air here. Chester finally had surgery on Wednesday and came home yesterday. At the moment he's on morphine and completely away with the fairies. Surgery went well but there's a very long recovery period (16 weeks) and a full program of meds, physio, and rehab to work through with him every day. It's...

Hi there, Reader Crispy pie crust, filled with cheesy, silky soft custard, and your choice of add-ins. I mean, is there anything better? I just love that quiche is good for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and this recipe is a blank canvas — You can make it literally any flavour you want. I've included a simple pie-crust recipe but there'll be no judgment from me if you buy one and just make the filling! CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE!
