My German work colleague brought one into work ... filled with cabage ... and topped with gravy! :shock:
Apparantly, it's Bavarian or Austrian (note my colleague is neither), but if it's all the same I'll think I'll be a stick in the mud and keep to the tried and tested.

Never actually tried but there's an idea: pancakes with an habernero jelly filling, or perhaps jalepeno and apple jam? You've got me started now, MMM!

Yuk! But those Southerners do eat some funny things... (Note: I'm from northern Germany. :lol: )

We eat pancakes once or twice a week sometimes - and not always for breakfast. I like mine with fresh blueberries and a little bit of syrup. My son eats just plain pancakes.

Pancakse weren't a breakfast thing for us, either - we were more likely to have them for lunch. Maybe with some veggie soup as a first course.

Do you pick wild blueberries? I'm looking forward to that time - must make an effort this year to find the right places!

Not fresh picked but not bought frozen or canned either. I buy a lot of berries in season and freeze them myself though. To me, anything that hasn't been frozen or canned before I buy it, and is still whole, is fresh.
