Pumpkin pancake is one of my favourite dessert. It can be easily made and stored to be eaten at a later time. While pumpkin is more available in the Autumn, if you are able to buy in year round, you can make this anytime. It has natural sweetness so you don’t need to add a lot of sugar to it.

There is nothing worse than standing around stove sweating while cooking….

However, you have to be patient like I mentioned in my Vietnamese baguette post. I’ve been baking on and off for a few years I’ve noticed how little…
I always loved baking and that amplified during the pandemic. One of the first recipe I made for this blog was baguettes, specifically Vietnamese baguettes.
