## Posts

Dear friends, first of all I'd like to apologize to everyone who follows my blog, and to those waiting for the roundup of the [**Pora na Pora II**](https://flowers-recipes.com/pora-na-pora-event-round-ii/) event, for this longer break in writing. Unfortunately, I was forced into it by illness. I'm getting better and better, and I hope that soon I'll have the strength to sit at the keyboard for longer and put together an interesting post with a tasty recipe.

And now, just as a little fun fact, I invite you to celebrate **Pancake Day**, which falls on today's date. I absolutely love pancakes and all kinds of fritters and crepes, and I only wish I could go into the kitchen and fry up my favorites. All I can do is share with you the recipes I've already put on the blog. It may be too late for breakfast pancakes, but they taste just as good for dinner.

**[Jamie Oliver's Pancakes,](https://flowers-recipes.com/pancakes-my-favorite/)** my favorite, fluffy and delicate, and not complicated at all. Perfect with blueberries or maple syrup.

**Banana-apple pancakes**. My daughters adore them and break records for the number of pancakes eaten. I like them a lot too, by the way. Perfect for a Sunday breakfast, but also for a quick dinner. We like the banana-apple version best, but you can also make them with just one of those fruits.

**Buckwheat blini**, which make me hungry just thinking about them. Perfect with any topping, sweet or savory.

**Orange-vanilla crepes**, classic, feather-light crepes, pan-fried, with delicate vanilla farmer's cheese.

Although for me pancakes mean mostly sweet pancakes and crepes, we can't forget the savory version.

**[Crepes with spinach and chicken](https://flowers-recipes.com/melt-in-your-mouth-chicken-and-spinach-crepes/)** are among the favorite crepes not only in my house.

[And **crepe roll-ups with goat cheese**](https://flowers-recipes.com/light-crepe-roll-ups-with-goat-cheese-carrot-and-poppy-seeds/) are great for a picnic (which we still have to wait a bit for), a snack, or a second breakfast at work, because you eat them cold.

And finally, a few recipes **[on Jamie Oliver's website](http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/special-occasions/pancake-day).** Some of them look delicious, and not only the sweet ones.

I wish you a happy Pancake Day, and see you next time!

  Oh wow, what a choice. Hmm… no, I couldn't pick just one option. I'd want a little bit of each!

  Asieju, Karmelitko, thank you :) Every one of the options really does have its own charm :)
