Baked Pancake with Nectarines

I am so confused lately that it’s hard to concentrate. One day we have a middle of a summer in Berlin to welcome rainy autumn with a next one. I read a book that was supposed to blow my mind just to ask “seriously?” after a last sentence. It happens. But then something special happens. I managed to visit an amazing place thanks to friends. It was a kind of a magical garden, just like from a book and it moved me back to the time of my childhood. I used to spent most of my time outdoors, collect flowers and fruits from my grandma’s garden, spend hours in a forest. I’ve decided to discover my inner child again and to enjoy nature more. Berlin gives you many possibilities, as it’s full of lakes and green areas. I’ll let you know how it went.

One good thing about traveling often is a time difference. Why? Because thanks to it I’ve learned how to get up very early. My day starts around 6-7 am and I have time to prepare something special. Yesterday I made a baked pancake with nectarines due to Le creme de la crumb’s recipe. The cool thing is that it looks like a cake and it’s fun to eat it for a breakfast. Try yourself.

You will need:

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 4 eggs
• ¾ cup milk
• ¾ cup rye flour
• pinch of salt
• pinch of sugar
• few nectarines
• some more sugar for dusting
• creme fraiche

Preheat your oven to 200*C (400*F). Place butter in an iron pan or a baking dish so it melts.

In a bowl mix eggs, milk, flour, salt and sugar. Pour it into an iron pan and bake for about 20 minutes.

Meantime cut nectarines. When your pancake is baked place nectarines on it, sprinkle with sugar and bake for few more minutes (2-3).

Serve with a teaspoon of creme fraiche or yogurt.

Enjoy, Marta
