Broccoli pancakes… Well let’s just say, I’ve got a thing for pancakes. That being pancakes in all different kinds of shapes, with different kinds of flavors and different pancake toppings.
I like savory pancakes and sweet, sweet pancakes. And I do experiment a lot! Sometimes I’m getting not the greatest pancakes, let’s just say that, but sometimes I really get a result that is perfectly good enough for hitting the blog! Yay.
The best broccoli pancakes
Like with these broccoli pancakes for instance, which I’ve made quite a few times now, and which I’m totally loving. Especially with the addition of extra feta cheese, some hummus and maybe even a great quinoa, rice ‘something’ salad on the side.
They work great for lunch or dinner and they are just so good that you want to eat them straight off the pan. Just saying!
