Orange pancakes with caramelized oranges and roaster almonds
2013 is full of walking for me and my Mr. It is fun, we’re walking for hours, talking and discovering Berlin. It could be more fun if the temperature rises over 0*C, but a gal can’t have everything. I have so many plans and resolutions for 2013 and I’m not sure if a year has enough days for all of them. Let’s hope so.
So far I’ve started to plan my trip to San Francisco, so if you have tips for me, please drop a line.
You will need for pancakes:
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 & 1/2 tbsp sugar
- pinch salt
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- zest of 2 small or 1 big orange
For caramelized oranges:
- 1 orange, cut in bigger pieces
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- 2 tbsp water
- toasted almonds
Combine all the pancake ingredients in a bowl and combine them by mixing. If you still have small lumps, don’t worry, it’s all ok. Fry your pancakes on a medium heat, until it’s golden-brown on each side.
To make toasted almonds - cut the almonds, put it on a baking tray, sprinkle with an olive oil and bake in 220*C for about 5-10 minutes. It’s best to observe it :)
You want to make caramelized oranges as well, it creates the whole meal. Cut oranges in pieces, transfer it to a small pot, add water and sugar and cook on a small heat for around 10-15 minutes.
Enjoy, Marta
