German Apple Pancakes {mini}
Happy Monday! What a bee.u.tee.fullll weekend we had here in Portland. The sun was out yesterday and the leaves were stunning in their Autumn wardrobe!
While we have been enjoying soups, chili, and warm dinners...breakfast for dinner is always a welcome change.
Do you enjoy breakfast for dinner on a regular basis or is it something really rare and special?
It is always tempting for me to skip the apples and settle for Dutch babies, but German apple pancakes when their is a chill outside just makes your home smell THAT.MUCH.cozier...not to mention a sensory change from onions, garlic and leeks!
If your blender is in the very very back of your kitchen cabinet, you will want to dig it out. You will need it for the batter if you want to avoid the lumps and bumps! Enjoy!
